Gulf Air reinstates flights to Zanzibar

Gulf Air is reinstating its flights to Tanzania's tropical paradise island of Zanzibar. Flights to the 'spice island' will commence on June 18 and will be operated by Gulf Traveller, the airline's new all economy full service airline. 

Gulf Traveller's fleet of Boeing 767-300ER aircraft will provide twice-weekly services to Zanzibar and Dar Es Salaam from Abu Dhabi and Muscat, fitting in with the recently announced Gulf Air Holidays 'World Experience' programme'.

"As a division of Gulf Air, Gulf Traveller offers everything traditionally associated with an economy service on a major international carrier," said James Hogan, President & Chief Executive, Gulf Air.

"Guests flying to Zanzibar and to the Tanzanian capital will feel completely relaxed and cared for with a carefully selected dining product, a range of inflight entertainment and by the language skills of our multi-lingual flight attendants on board each flight."
