Ironbutts57 : that is exactly the point made in countless posts on this mighty thread. The 'Manager' foresaw this particular problem but was not permitted to stop the sackings . So, who exactly countered the move ? Who exactly is now responsible for the shortage. We all know the answers and yet again, Managers not allowed to Manage is the core issue.

GF Dry....
"One of the above articles mentioned GF is now a dry airline. Is this true?!?!?"
About as dry as the Falcon Gold lounge in LHR and Bahrain! Or the shared Oman Air /Gulf lounge in Dubai.
Had two recent sectors in FG -
LHR/BAH, great food and drink,cheerful FA's,crappy old A330. Fizz flowed
BAH/DXB, again great service from the FA's, new A320,Fizz flowed

Gulf air still has a few resources but they can't get back up without a proper CEO given a free hand without stirring in politics in the business..If the airline doesn't pick up by the end of the decade,there would be no room for Gulf Air in the region.

In other news,Gulf Air isn't the Bombardier C series launch customer anymore.The orders are delayed and might get transferred to another airline.No news about the flights to Moscow yet sadly.

Bahrain’s Gulf Air could be a prospective bidder for acquiring 26% shares of Pakistan International Airlines that the government wanted to sell to strategic investors, said Ismail.
Would like to see how that turns out

still surprises me that people think a CEO will make any difference. If GF gets a credible CEO he will come to the same conclusion EVERY logical person already knows. GF can not compete and will lose money as the regional competitors have made an unrealistic market. The ONLY thing that will save GF is the government admitting they need it and stepping up and treating it like their flag carrier. But on that end Bahrain is in way too much turmoil to stand together and support the carrier that started aviation in the ME! SAD
What next?
