Good response to Gulf Air services

Staff Reporter

BANGALORE: Gulf Air, the national carrier of the Kingdom of Bahrain and the Sultanate of Oman, registered a significant growth in the number of passengers it carried from Bangalore in the first 10 months of the year after the airline started daily operations.

While the airline carried 18,000 passengers during 2005 with two and three flights a week, the numbers reached 27,000 in January-October 2006.

Bangalore has been the fourth largest revenue-generating centre for Gulf Air next to Mumbai, Delhi and Thiruvananthapuram, according to Gulf Air's General Manager (India), Rajeev Nambiar.

Mr. Nambiar told presspersons here on Friday that the airline had been getting good response from passengers in Bangalore.

That was the reason for Gulf Air to introduce daily flights while it started Bangalore operations in 2002 with two flights a week, Mr. Nambiar noted.
