Gulf Air Restarts Bahrain Hub After Airspace Reopens

The cautious restart keeps a temporary Dammam schedule in place under a short ceasefire.

Overview

  • Bahrain International Airport said flights are resuming in stages after the airspace reopened, and it urged travelers to check their flight status.
  • Three Gulf Air flights ferried back from Dammam on the first night, marking Bahrain’s first landings in more than a month.
  • Gulf Air is restoring 13 routes from Manama while keeping a Dammam schedule for now, with London switching by April 11 and several other cities later in April.
  • Passengers can request full refunds for travel through April 15 or rebook without fees for new dates through June 30.
  • Travel plans could still change under a 14‑day ceasefire, as shown by a brief King Fahd Causeway closure and official warnings to watch for updates.
