Gulf Air, Bahrain's national carrier, has rolled out its Colombo flight timetable following a recent announcement of the addition of the Sri Lankan capital to its destination network.

According to the new schedule, the carrier will fly five times a week between Bahrain International Airport and Bandaranaike International Airport, starting from January 19, 2017.

Commenting on the airline’s schedule, Yahya Ali Buali, Gulf Air director of sales and marketing, said: “Gulf Air’s five weekly service between Colombo and Bahrain affords convenient flight timings for travellers with morning and evening flights departing Colombo alongside afternoon and evening flights departing Bahrain. Our tailored flight schedule satisfies the needs of the varied passenger base we are catering to on this route – both those travelling for business and leisure – and we anticipate their positive feedback.”

Boasting one of the Middle East’s largest networks, Gulf Air is well-positioned to connect the Sri Lankan capital to several key destinations in the Middle East and Europe with excellent connectivity via its efficient Bahrain International Airport hub.
