British Airways, the ‘on-off-on’ airline to the kingdom, will restart its operations to Bahrain tomorrow after pausing them amid tensions between the US and Iran.
The British flag carrier suddenly halted flights to Bahrain, home to the US Navy’s Fifth Fleet, last week, much to the despair of its long-suffering passengers.
“I’m a retired Brit visiting family in Bahrain, and my British Airways flight was cancelled twice with no explanation whatsoever,” Linda Houghton from the English town of Gateshead in Tyne and Wear, told the GDN. “The cancellation emails didn’t say why, and when we called the airline’s hotline, the agent didn’t seem to know either.
“They mentioned there were lots of people waiting, so we couldn’t stay on the line for long. In the end, it was only after my daughter-in-law had some very firm words that I was rebooked onto a Gulf Air flight.
