Gulf Air opens Falcon Gold Lounge in Bahrain 

(MENAFN - Arab News) Gulf Air recently inaugurated its Falcon Gold Lounge at the Bahrain International Airport.

The fully renovated lounge seamlessly integrates contemporary design and architecture with Arabian influences, creating an environment that combines peace and tranquility with extensive modern-day business and catering facilities. For the first time, premium passengers have the added facilities of seven private sleeping rooms, a cigar lounge and shower rooms with hotel-style towels and luxury brand toiletries and amenities.

Passengers can stay connected with free Wi-Fi throughout the lounge, discreet power sockets at every seat and a business center that includes PCs, fax machines and printers. For families, the lounge offers a spacious family room with highly trained professional SkyNannies in attendance as well as a gaming room equipped with Xbox and PlayStation units.

Gulf Air CEO Samer Majali said the upgraded lounge was a further example of the airline's commitment to investing in its hub. "Bahrain is our most important market so developing and improving our home-product is key. The new lounge is the latest in a series of service enhancements across our entire passenger value chain including the relaunch of our Sky Nanny Service, Sky Chef, online check-in and a robust network connectivity in the Middle East."

Gulf Air Chief Services Officer Marcus Bernhardt said: "The revamp of the Bahrain Falcon Gold Lounge is part of an extensive lounge-renovation program across our network, which saw the inauguration last year of our new premium lounge in Terminal 4 at Heathrow International Airport in London, and will be preceded next year by the upgrading of our premium lounge in Dubai International Airport."
