Gulf Air, the national carrier of the Kingdom of Bahrain, has entered into an agreement with SKY express, the multi-award-winning Greek Airline, significantly expanding its network and strengthening its presence in Greece and Europe, and providing passengers with even more travel options and convenience.

The one-way Special Prorate Agreement (SPA) allows Gulf Air passengers to seamlessly connect onto SKY express flights, fly and connect through Athens to 32 destinations across Greece.

Under this agreement, passengers travelling from Europe – via key hubs like Rome, Milan, Paris, Munich, Frankfurt, and London – can enjoy seamless connections with a single ticket from their city of departure through Athens to Bahrain, and onward to Gulf Air’s extensive network.

A Gulf Air spokesperson said: "This partnership with SKY express signifies a key step in Gulf Air's network expansion strategy, broadening our reach and strengthening our market presence in Europe.

“By connecting our network to SKY express, we're offering our passengers enhanced travel experiences to the Greek destinations with seamless connectivity, and more travel options to choose from."

Gerasimos Skaltsas, Chief Commercial Officer of SKY express, said: “Our partnership with Gulf Air marks a significant milestone in SKY express's international expansion, enhancing connectivity for passengers across Greece and global destinations via Bahrain.

“By offering seamless travel with a single ticket, we are providing a more convenient and comprehensive travel experience. This collaboration brings mutual benefits to both airlines and our passengers.” – TradeArabia News Service
