kunash Posted October 24, 2011 Share Posted October 24, 2011 Next week I will be travelling with my wife and two kids to Heathrow, UK with Gulf Air, from Bangkok. There is a sop over in Bahrain. There is 2 hours 30 minutes between flights. Anyone got experience of this stopover? Do we have to wealk to the lounge or is it a bus transfer (like qatar). is 2.30 enough time, with some relaxing in the lounge? thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
smokie36 Posted October 24, 2011 Share Posted October 24, 2011 Bahrain is a pleasant stopover mate. You shouldn't need to bus it at all....not tried the lounge but everything was cheap last time I passed through there. They must surely have stopped everyone smoking all over the terminal by now.....yes a while since I last flew Gulf Air. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
meom Posted October 24, 2011 Share Posted October 24, 2011 ^ There are 2 smoking rooms in the terminal plus 2 bars (sky lounge & Irish bar) that also allow smoking inside. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RichardL Posted October 24, 2011 Share Posted October 24, 2011 As said above, 2.5 hours is fine. I did it a couple of years ago - probably the same flight times - and although it is quite a small airport, there's enough there to waste time having a bit of a shufty round, and the Irish bar is quite relaxing. Take some loo paper though, as that's one part of the terminal which is of a rather lesser standard. Here's a map. http://bahrainairport.com/bia/airportmaps.htm Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
