Air France-KLM to boost Gulf flights

Air France-KLM group will offer 75 weekly flights out of 10 stations in the Gulf region this summer.

It will be a four per cent increase on weekly flights compared to previous year.

In Bahrain, it will operate seven flights per week, out of which three will be operated via Kuwait instead of Abu Dhabi. The number of flights out of Muscat will increase from five to six per week and will be operated with a short stop in Abu Dhabi.

In Kuwait, the operations will go up from five to seven flights per week, and in Teheran from four to five flights per week.

In the UAE, Saudi Arabia and Qatar the summer schedule is equal to that of last year with a total of 28 weekly frequencies out of Dubai and Abu Dhabi, 17 weekly flights out of Dammam, Riyadh and Jeddah and five weekly flights out of Doha.

Abu Dhabi will become a fully non-stop KLM operation with six flights per week.
