Hold onto your boarding passes! ✈️ Bahrain just launched its first-ever direct flights to China, marking a major leap in travel and trade between the Middle East and Asia. The inaugural flight from Bahrain International Airport to Shanghai Pudong International Airport took off on May 28, with Guangzhou next in line starting May 29.
Gulf Air, Bahrain’s national carrier, will operate daily flights to Shanghai every Tuesday, Thursday, and Saturday, while Guangzhou-bound travelers can jet off every Monday, Wednesday, and Friday. 🌏 This move is set to boost tourism, business ties, and cultural exchanges, offering travelers a faster gateway between the regions.
👋 Shoutout to wanderlust-driven explorers and entrepreneurs: Your next dim sum adventure in Guangzhou or skyscraper selfie in Shanghai just got easier! Plus, students and diaspora communities can now reconnect with loved ones (or spicy hotpot) without the hassle of layovers.
