hai,
I am planning to book tickets to go to Mumbai, India by Gulf Air. We usually go buy Emirates but as Gulf Air is having the best fares in December we wanted to know how is this Airline. I mean on time seating food etc. Any advice is welcome.

it probably won't crash, so settle down and just take the cheap flight.

you get what you pay for ultimately.

only small biscit with no water no juice between doha and mannama airport

That is their service between Qatar and bahrain

I don't use my main airline with Gulf, Emirate, Qatar and Etihad but I do take as connection flight

So Emirate is OK and the best compare with the fare they charge

But Emirate Check In at Doha airport is very bad service. very slow and not respecting to their customer. Some time you will meet with rude person as well

That is all I can say

DEAR

BROTHER

01. GULF AIR FARE, SERVICE & FOOD IS EXCELLENT.

02. GOOD & CLASSY FOR THE FAMILIES WHO ARE PURCHASING WITH THEIR PERSONAL MONEY.

03. I AM TRAVELLING FROM LAST 03 YEARS WITH MY FAMILY & 02 KIDS.

04. YOU WILL ENJOY THE TIME IN BAHRAIN AIRPORT ALSO.

05. BUT IF YOUR COMPANY IS PROVIDING THE ALLOWANCES THEN GO BY QATAR AIRWAYS AS ITS DIRECT BUT EXPENSIVE.

06. WISH YOU A HAPPY & SAFE JOURNEY.

THANKS

I TRAVELLED BY GULF AIR TO MUMBAI A YEAR AGO, ALONG WITH MY FAMILY & FOUND THEIR SERVICE QUITE GOOD. GO AHEAD WITH YOUR JOURNEY, YOU WILL NOT REGRET IT.

Emirates & Qatar airways is best

your concern is your budget...you can't expect a good service if you shifted to a lower fares. They reduced the price so you can expect a reduce hospitality.

You will go hungry as they don't serve much food compared to Emirates.

It was a bad travel experience for me then.

Not as good as Emirates so do not expect the same level of service. However if arriving is more important than the journey go for it.
