Does anyone know the fonts (both arabic and english) used in the Gulf Air logo?

- Gulf Air uses the commercial font 'Mosquito'

[edit] Abu Dhabi

The article seems to imply that there are no flights to anywhere from Abu Dhabi apart from to Muscat or Bahrain when, as far as I am aware, there are still quite a number to regional and longer haul destinations (someone please correct me if i'm wrong). ARTooD2 23:36, 1 June 2006 (UTC)

- Gulf Air do not fly to any destination from Abu Dhabi apart from Bahrain and Muscat. This is due to the withdrawl of Abu Dhabi as an owner state in 2005. This was effective with the new summer schedule (2006) which was introduced on the 28th March 2006.

This article is about Gulf Air and includes reference to the relationship between the airline and Abu Dhabi Airport (AUH). A list of airlines flying from Abu Dhabi International Airport should help you to find details of destinations from this airport by clicking on the link.

Ah...If they have changed the timetable that will be why. I know Abu Dhabi withdrew it was just that last time I was at AUH there were still a lot of Gulf Air flights but that was in February. ARTooD2 20:42, 8 June 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Livery

Can somebody explain the logic between the three colors used in the old Gulf Air's tail? - InTeGeR13 19:44, 10 December 2006 (UTC)

It represented the colours of the original owner states of the UAE, Qatar, Bahrain and Oman.

[edit] incidents

Just recently, didn't Gulf Air have an incident at MNL where an A340 was denied permission to land despite it being low on fuel? You may want to add this to the incidents and accidents section if this were true. --124.106.133.97 09:59, 9 January 2007 (UTC)
