Gulf Air returns to KL with 3 weekly flights

Gulf Air has resumed direct flights between Bahrain and Kuala Lumpur International Airport (KLIA), marking its return to Malaysia after a 14-year hiatus. Malaysia Airports Holdings Bhd (MAHB) managing director Datuk Mohd Izani Ghani expressed optimism about the new connection, stating that the service will bolster KLIA's Middle East network and provide passengers with more travel options.

The airline's chief executive officer, Martin Gauss, confirmed that the inaugural flight was fully booked and that additional flights are scheduled for events like the Formula 1 Bahrain Grand Prix. This development is expected to enhance KLIA's capacity and strengthen the route, providing both airlines and passengers with greater connectivity between Bahrain and Malaysia.
