Gulf Air adds Nice to its leisure boutique destination

Gulf Air has announced a new addition to its 2020 network with a popular premium leisure destination: Nice on the Cote d’azur in France. Commencing July 2020, Gulf Air will operate two weekly flights by an Airbus 321neo aircraft, said airline during the Kuwait Aviation Show 2020.

On this expansion and route announcement, Minister of Industry, Commerce and Tourism, and Chairman of Gulf Air’s Board of Directors, Zayed R. Alzayani said: “On the western side of our network map, and coinciding with our expansion in Europe in summer 2020, we will launch flights to Nice on the Cote d’azur as a boutique destination catering to our premium leisure travellers.”

He added: “As we welcome our new Airbus 321neo next year, we will serve our European routes with a brand new aircraft featuring flat-beds and superior in-flight entertainment system for more enjoyable journeys with Gulf Air”.

Recently the airline announced plans to operate flights to Milan as a year-round destination as well as Mykonos and Munich as seasonal destinations – all starting from summer 2020.
