Gulf Air and Saudi Arabian Airlines (SAUDIA) held talks to discuss their close commercial relationships and explore ways to build on the ties by establishing a codeshare agreement.
Gulf Air and SAUDIA will cooperate to expand their footprints regionally and internationally by sharing their codes and offering guests the signature warmth of Arabian hospitality.
The codeshare will further enhance seamless travel options for passengers of Gulf Air and SAUDIA, providing wider choices of domestic destinations in Saudi Arabia and other international destinations across each airline’s network.
Gulf Air place its ‘GF’ code on SAUDIA flights from Riyadh and Jeddah to Bahrain, Abha, Jizan, Yanbu, Aljouf, Ha’il as well as Tunis–Carthage airport. On the other hand, the agreement will see SAUDIA place its ‘SV’ code on Gulf Air flights from Bahrain to Riyadh, Jeddah, Tbilisi, Sialkot, Faisalabad, Baku, and Multan. These codeshare operations will commence from the upcoming summer schedule of 2021.
