    Premium passengers can travel in style as Gulf Air has extended its luxury chauffeur drive service to five new stations in its newly revamped network.
First and Business class travellers to Bangkok, Paris, Frankfurt, Kuala Lumpur and Manila will be able to avail the service furnished by top of the range chauffeur-driven luxury limousines, equipped with air-conditioning/heating, music selection, mineral water, daily newspaper and GSM mobile phones.

Families and people travelling as groups with excess baggage will be provided with Multi Purpose Vans (MPVs) to make their journey home more comfortable.

Gulf Air already offers the luxury chauffeur service in Abu Dhabi, Dubai, London and Muscat.

"A top priority in our service philosophy is to provide the best customer service and unmatched travel comfort to our passengers," says Gulf Air Executive Vice President Marketing and Sales Lee Shave.

"With the extension of our luxury service, we want our premium passengers to experience Gulf Air's legendary Arabian hospitality all the way to their doorstep."


The free limousine service is available to all full-fare paying passengers ticketed on Gulf Air's long haul flights and holding confirmed reservations in First Class (F or A fares) or Business Class (J fares).

In case additional cars required due to more number of passengers or excessive baggage, the same will be provided but the customers will have to settle the additional costs directly with the limousine company. Additional stops en route, if required by the passenger, should be requested in advance.

The service needs to be booked at least 72 hours prior to the date of travel.
