Gulf Air, the national carrier of the Kingdom of Bahrain, has announced the extension of its temporary network operations from King Fahd International Airport in Dammam until April 2026.
Flights from Dammam to London Heathrow (LHR) will continue until 11 April 2026, while flights from Dammam to Mumbai (BOM), Nairobi (NBO), Cairo (CAI), Chennai (MAA), Bangkok (BKK), Casablanca (CMN), and Manila (MNL) will run until 30 April 2026. Amid the temporary closure of the Kingdom of Bahrain’s airspace and that of certain countries in the region in light of current developments, Gulf Air continues to operate a temporary network of 10 destinations via Dammam.
Gulf Air will also provide ground transportation between the Kingdom of Bahrain and King Fahd International Airport for passengers holding confirmed bookings on these flights.
Gulf Air is facilitating Saudi Arabia transit visa assistance exclusively for passengers travelling to and from the Kingdom of Bahrain, who are using Gulf Air organised ground transportation. Passengers whose final destination is the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia, must hold a valid visa arranged independently.
Passengers may book their flights through Gulf Air's website at gulfair.com, via the mobile app, or through authorised travel agents.
