GULF AIR || AMENDED || Operations Circular No. 20240522 || 22 May 2024
Subject: Return ticket preferably on GF only
With immediate effect, passengers holding visit visas traveling to GCC countries on two separate tickets will undergo comprehensive scrutiny at all airports in India before being accepted. Ideally, the return ticket should be issued on Gulf Air. If issued on another airline, it must be authentic and not voided or refunded upon arrival.
Lately, there has been a significant increase in such cases, leading to revenue loss for both passengers and the airline across various GCC countries. To mitigate these occurrences, we are compelled to thoroughly verify the authenticity of documents from other airlines.
Please disseminate this information to your reservations and sales teams. Thank you for your ongoing support.
