Due to the current situation in Bahrain and closure of airspace, Gulf Air has made major changes in its flights. The airline has started its commercial operations through King Fahd International Airport (DMM) in Dammam, Saudi Arabia. Now all passengers can book their tickets for 15 and 16 March 2026 through Gulf Air’s website and mobile app. With this decision, migrants going to India, especially Mumbai, will get a lot of convenience in their journey.

New rules and visa facilities for travelers
Passengers will have to keep in mind some important rules before going to King Fahd International Airport. Officials have clearly stated that no passenger is allowed to go to Dammam Airport without confirmed booking. For passengers with confirmed bookings, Gulf Air is offering free transport between Bahrain and Dammam Airport.
Gulf Air is also facilitating the issuance of Saudi transit visas for passengers traveling to and from Bahrain. Travelers who already have a valid Saudi entry visa can travel using it. Until Bahrain Civil Aviation Affairs confirms the opening of the airspace, flights will be operated from Dammam.
