Overview

Gulf Air is the national carrier of the Kingdom of Bahrain and celebrated their 70th anniversary in 2020 having been founded in 1950.

They don’t yet fly to the U.S., but hopefully soon. They actually did many years ago. They fly to Africa, Europe, Asia, the Middle East and the Indian subcontinent.

Gulf Air has alliances with American Airlines, Turkish Airlines and Aegean to name a few, but are not part of the big three alliances.
