Gulf Air to increase flights to Frankfurt

Gulf Air is to increase the frequency of its operations to Frankfurt Am Mein from 15 December, with the addition of four services from Abu Dhabi International Airport to the German city.

This expansion follows the airline’s recent news that its all economy subsidiary, Gulf Traveller, will begin flights between Abu Dhabi and Birmingham in November this year.

James Hogan, President and Chief Executive of Gulf Air said, “Gulf Air has served Germany longer than any other Gulf carrier. The extra Frankfurt flights, which will be operated on Airbus A330s, will offer our customers more options to another European hub,”

“The schedule has been planned to provide improved connections to meet the increasing travel demand of leisure travellers, but more especially business travellers for whom the additional flights provide greater flexibility and convenience.” he added

Flights arrive in the afternoon in Frankfurt and depart from the new Gulf Air check in at the modern, less congested facilities in Terminal 2.

The flights will depart from Abu Dhabi operating directly to Frankfurt and return in the evening to the Emirate capital via Bahrain on Mondays, Tuesdays, Fridays and Saturdays.
