Hi, Thanks for the information. Can anyone tell us who are the Owners and the current management? The type of aircrafts they are going to operate, destinations planned to fly to or any information will be much appreciated.

It's owned by 1 of the Bahraini royal family & a Saudi businessman(at the moment). They will get A320s & be doing intra-gulf flights which will all be day trips. An exGF CEO called I. AL H. is the new boss & head of ops is Cap A. Y. exGF & exBexair.

Heard there are problems already for the new airline. Something about the division of the shares between the guy here & the guy across the causeway.

So much for the support of the government if one of the royal members is creating an airline to compete with GF.

Found out that the destinations are; Alexandria (Egypt), Damascus, Amman, Dubai, Khartoum & Beirut beginning of the second week of January 08. Traffic rights obtained & the birds are on the way. Let us all watch the birth of a new low cost airline in the gulf. This coming days will prove if it is true or just a rumor.
