Bahrain’s Gulf Air has opened registration for limited flights it plans to operate from Dammam to London Heathrow, Mumbai and Bangkok from 11 March 2026, for passengers meeting Bahrain’s entry or exit requirements.
In an update issued at 17:00 on 10 March, the airline said flights to and from Bahrain remain temporarily suspended because of the airspace closure. Operations will resume once Bahrain’s Civil Aviation Affairs announces that the Kingdom’s airspace has reopened.
