Bahrain's Gulf Air has announced the launch of seasonal flights to the city of El Alamein in Egypt starting next year, 2026. The airline will operate these flights on its Airbus A320 aircraft, equipped with modern cabins, giving travelers the opportunity to explore the beach destination with its history, natural scenery and diverse tourist activities.
The move comes in the context of the company's vision aimed at improving the passenger experience and meeting travelers' diverse needs, as well as helping to strengthen ties between Bahrain and Egypt and enhance cooperation between them in various fields. The announcement coincided with the official visit to Egypt last Thursday by Prince Salman bin Hamad Al Khalifa, Bahrain's Crown Prince and Prime Minister, according to a post on the Gulf Air account on LinkedIn.
Gulf Air has operated flights to and from Egypt since 1974 and previously ran seasonal flights to Sharm El-Sheikh and Alexandria, while it currently continues to operate double-daily flights to Cairo in Egypt.
