Chairman and members of the Bahrain Bosnia and Herzegovina for Friendship and Business Society recently visited Gulf Air, the national carrier of the Kingdom of Bahrain, to discuss potential business between the two entities in relation to enhancing joint cooperation. The society, headed by its Chairman Mr. Jawad Al-Hawaj, shared the interest and plans with the airline’s executive management, headed by Acting CEO Captain Waleed AlAlawi. The discussion aims to solidify the tourism and economic relationship between the Kingdom of Bahrain and the Federal Republic of Bosnia and Herzegovina, the society discussed ways of possible collaboration to improve commercial, cultural and social ties in the near future.
The meeting included a proposal submitted by the society to Gulf Air with a vision of launching a direct flight route between Manama and Sarajevo following the method of air charter service. The number of GCC tourists in recent years travelling to Bosnia and Herzegovina had witnessed growth for leisure and medical tourism as well as real estate business; the society believes a direct route between the two capitals will be successful in attracting seasonal charter travel. The Bahrain Bosnia and Herzegovina for Friendship and Business Society will continue to work closely with Gulf Air to establish business ventures between the two countries.
