The best way to bring Bahrain in the spotlight again is to ensure that tourists have easy access to the country, especially while in transit.
A five or six hours halt at the airport can easily turn into a day or two stay in Bahrain when travelling by Gulf Air, the national airline of Bahrain.
Like Emirates Airlines, Gulf Air too can have an online visa facility for 96 hours or shorter. This will surely increase visitors to Bahrain. The airline can also make certain that tourists have an onward return ticket.
Looking forward to changing the shape of the kingdom’s tourism.
