This addition of the Bahraini capital to flynas’ network aligns with the airline’s broader growth and expansion strategy, introduced last year under the slogan “We Connect the World to the Kingdom.”
This milestone is not just a result of flynas’ ambition but also a product of collaborative efforts. Bahrain Tourism and Exhibition Authority has joined hands with flynas to make this initiative a reality.
It’s a fine example of how government authorities and private enterprises can work together to strengthen the tourism industry.
A Regional Tourism Destination
The recent Memorandum of Understanding signed between Saudi Arabia and Bahrain signifies a united approach to promote both kingdoms as a single tourist destination.
