Set to commence on September 9, the route will strengthen connectivity within the GCC and will bring Wizz Air Abu Dhabi’s destinations to a total of 32 since launching in January 2021.

 

The flight to Bahrain International Airport (BIA) will operate three times a week on Tuesday, Thursday and Sunday.

 

Kees Van Schaick, managing director of Wizz Air Abu Dhabi said: “Increasing the connectivity of the GCC by offering more affordable travel options has always been a priority for us at Wizz Air Abu Dhabi. We are excited to offer an alternative travel option for the short flight to the Kingdom of Bahrain. It is an appealing destination given its proximity to the UAE, friendly locals and wealth of history and culture – we are confident that Bahrain will be a welcome addition to our flight roster.”

 

BAC chief executive officer, Mohamed Yousif Al Binfalah said: “We are pleased to welcome Wizz Air Abu Dhabi and look forward to working with them to deliver a new and unique travel experience for our customers. This new route will further strengthen the historic ties between the Kingdom of Bahrain and the UAE, making it more convenient for passengers to travel between our countries for business or leisure. Following the opening of the new Passenger Terminal earlier this year, we are in an even stronger position to ensure that all carriers experience improved levels of service, and that passengers enjoy a comfortable and hassle-free airport experience.”
