Emirates will operate a special one-off A380 service to Bahrain on 15 December, one day ahead of the country’s special Golden Jubilee celebrations. The Kingdom’s 50th anniversary coincides with the UAE’s Golden Jubilee, and Emirates’ special one-off operation with the specially emblazoned 50th livery further demonstrates the unique, fraternal ties between the two nations.

The airline also expects a jump in demand between Bahrain and Dubai during the long weekend ahead, and the airline is boosting its capacity to meet the high traveler volumes. Emirates has been serving Bahrain for over 20 years, and currently operates 19 weekly flights to the Kingdom. The airline has been gradually rebuilding its operations to and from the Kingdom in line with growing demand, helping connect travelers from Bahrain to over 120 global destinations. Emirates has also been working closely with aviation and travel partners in Bahrain to further enhance connectivity and expand benefits for travelers.

At the Dubai Airshow last month, Emirates signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) with Gulf Air to develop a codeshare partnership and increase cooperation in a number of areas across the business. This new agreement offers more choices and convenient connections for travelers across the two airline networks, in addition to reciprocal frequent flyer program benefits.
