Bahrain’s national carrier Gulf Air, which has won awards for being the most ‘Family-Friendly’ airline, has announced a new innovative offer for families, where kids can fly free with their parents.  

Under this promotion that runs from November 21 to 27, when a family of 2 adults and 2 children travel together, one child gets 100 per cent discount while the second child gets 25 per cent discount on their tickets excluding taxes and surcharges.

This special offer is applicable for passengers travelling from Bahrain, Dammam, Riyadh and Jeddah on economy class to any destination on Gulf Air’s network across Middle East, Europe and India, said a statement from the carrier.

Tickets can be booked now for travel between January 15 to March 31, 2013. Tickets can be booked online at www.gulfair.com.

Gulf Air chief commercial officer  Karim Makhlouf said, “Families form an integral and growing component of our travellers and, as an award-winning family-friendly airline, we fully recognize this important segment of our customers. Therefore, we strive to offer a variety of innovative, value-for-money offers that give families not only an affordable flight but also a wholesome travel experience."

"It is a great opportunity for families to travel together to visit their relatives and friends or simply to enjoy a great vacation," he added

Gulf Air has recently won the best ‘family friendly airline’ award twice from US-based publications in 2012 and the ‘best cabin crew’ ranking from an IATA survey, said the statement.
