Gulf Air, Bahrain’s national carrier, recently celebrated the airline’s inaugural service to its two newest Pakistan destinations — Multan and Faisalabad.

The Gulf Air aircraft were welcomed into Multan International Airport and Faisalabad International Airport with a celebratory water cannon salute and, upon arrival, Gulf Air crew joined a number of local media and travel industry representatives, Gulf Air’s Country Manager to Pakistan Muhammad Saleem Motiwala and the sales and airport teams at both locations.

Taking the airline’s total Pakistan destinations to seven, Multan and Faisalabad supplement Gulf Air’s current service to five cities in Pakistan — Karachi, Lahore and Islamabad, Peshawar and Sialkot.

Gulf Air flights to Multan, Pakistan's 5th largest city by population, and Faisalabad, a major industrial and manufacturing hub, are operated by an Airbus A320 aircraft.
