Air France Cargo boosts Bahrain service by adding fourth flight

AIR FRANCE Cargo plans to raise the frequency of its service to Bahrain by adding a cargo flight, bringing the number of weekly cargo flights to four.

The new cargo flight will connect Bahrain to Lisbon, Dhaka, Hong Kong and Cairo from November 1 to March 31, reports The Gulf Daily News.

"The open skies policy adopted by the Civil Aviation Affairs (CAA) to liberalise the industry, coupled with its marketing efforts to attract new airlines to Bahrain, has resulted in Air France Cargo adding an additional frequency," said a CAA spokesman.
