Agreement to explore potential services between the two destinations
Ras Al Khaimah International Airport (RAK) recently signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) with Gulf Air, the national carrier of the Kingdom of Bahrain, with the agreement aiming to build connectivity between the emirate and the kingdom.
Heralding a new phase of operations for RAK International Airport, the MoU was signed in a virtual ceremony that brought together high-ranking executives from both organizations.
Sanjay Khanna, CEO, RAK International Airport, and Captain Waleed AlAlawi, Acting CEO, Gulf Air, attended the event, along with members of their teams.
“As a boutique carrier, we look forward to adding Ras Al Khaimah to our network of destinations,” affirmed Captain AlAlawi.
“We are delighted to sign this Memorandum of Understanding with Gulf Air and enhance Ras Al Khaimah International Airport’s connectivity to destinations around the world,” remarked Khanna.
In November last year, RAK International Airport commenced passenger services with Indian value carrier SpiceJet flying out of Delhi, with Mumbai, Lucknow and Cochin added at the start of this year, along with increased frequencies from the Indian capital.
Established in March 1976 under the government of Ras Al Khaimah, Ras Al Khaimah International Airport (RKT) is the gateway between Ras Al Khaimah (RAK) and the world.
