Gulf Air increases number of flights to DubaiGulf Air has promised to expand its range of services to meet increasing demand for cheap flights to Dubai.

The airline announced this week that it has chartered 14 additional flights each week to the nation state.

Gulf Air is also planning to up the number of flights to Kuwait and the United Arab Emirates by a total of 28.

The move is part of the carrier's new winter schedule and the firm's chief commercial officer Karim Makhlouf told Alrroya.com that the driving force behind the change was a "tremendous increase in traffic [to] our popular destinations".

Abu Dhabi will also benefit from seven extra flights per week, meaning Gulf Air is putting on a total of 98 extra chartered flights.

The new schedule will come into effect on October 30th.

People with cheap flights to Dubai will be aware that the popular holiday destination is preparing for the forthcoming festival of Eid and there are expected to be a number of festivals held in the run up to the event.
