The new travel window allows passengers to move their journeys to <strong>any Gulf Air-operated flight up to 15 May 2026<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The move comes as aviation across the Middle East continues to adjust to regional tensions and temporary airspace disruptions, which have forced airlines to modify schedules and offer flexible booking options to thousands of travelers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">How passengers can make changes<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Passengers who booked directly with Gulf Air can manage their booking in two simple ways:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Rebooking:<\/strong> Call the airline\u2019s global contact centre at <strong>+973 1737 3737<\/strong>.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Refund requests:<\/strong> Submit a request through the <strong>Gulf Air mobile app<\/strong> using the <em>Manage My Booking<\/em> section.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Travelers who booked through a <strong>travel agent<\/strong> should contact their agent directly to arrange either a rebooking or refund.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Keep your booking details updated<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Gulf Air is also advising passengers to check that their <strong>contact details are updated<\/strong> in their reservations. This ensures that travelers receive real-time notifications about schedule changes, flight updates, or travel options.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">For many passengers across the region, flexibility is becoming essential. Airlines throughout the Gulf have been introducing similar rebooking and refund options as the aviation industry adapts to changing airspace conditions and evolving travel plans.<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Travel plans across the Gulf have been shifting quickly over the past week, and Bahrain\u2019s&hellip;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":11768,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"elementor_theme","format":"standard","meta":{"_angie_page":false,"_lmt_disableupdate":"","_lmt_disable":"","page_builder":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[97,124,166],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-11765","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-travel","category-business","category-city-news"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.powerup.city\/bh\/magazine\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/11765","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.powerup.city\/bh\/magazine\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.powerup.city\/bh\/magazine\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.powerup.city\/bh\/magazine\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.powerup.city\/bh\/magazine\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=11765"}],"version-history":[{"count":4,"href":"https:\/\/www.powerup.city\/bh\/magazine\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/11765\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":11771,"href":"https:\/\/www.powerup.city\/bh\/magazine\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/11765\/revisions\/11771"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.powerup.city\/bh\/magazine\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/11768"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.powerup.city\/bh\/magazine\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=11765"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.powerup.city\/bh\/magazine\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=11765"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.powerup.city\/bh\/magazine\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=11765"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
