Following the recent announcement of general amnesty by the Government of Bahrain to
over-staying hapless expatriate workers, Gulf Air, the national carrier, has come forward with a very
low, one-way fare to 18 destinations for those wanting to go back to their home country.
For as low as BD40, the amnesty seekers cleared by the authorities, can fly to Delhi, Mumbai,
Karachi, Dacca or Damascus. The fare to Lahore, Peshawar, Mumbai or Delhi is just BD50. Fares for
other destinations are detailed in the table below.
“Gulf Air always extends a helping hand for those in need,”
said Gulf Air Executive Vice President Marketing and Sales Lee Shave.
“It is more of a humanitarian gesture, in line with the government’s announcement of general
amnesty to over-stayers in the Kingdom. We hope people will make use of this offer to be back with
their nearest and dearest.”
Tickets can be purchased from any of the Gulf Air travel agents, or its sales offices in Manama, Seef Mall or
Sanad.
“As the flag carrier of the Kingdom of Bahrain, Gulf Air is pleased to help ease the financial burden of these unfortunate people and help
them save some money when they return home,” added Gulf Air General Manager Sales Bahrain Abdulmalik Al
Saei.
