GURUGRAM, September 4, 2025: SpiceJet has signed an interline agreement with Gulf Air, the national carrier of the Kingdom of Bahrain. This partnership will provide SpiceJet passengers seamless access to Gulf Air’s expansive network across the Middle East, Africa, Europe and Central Asia via Bahrain, while Gulf Air customers will gain enhanced connectivity to India through SpiceJet’s extensive domestic network.

Together, we are committed to making travel more convenient, affordable, and accessible for both leisure and business travellers.”
