Gulf Air launches mobile check-in

In few simple clicks customers can check in using their internet-enabled mobiles from 24 hours in advance to until 90minutes to their flight departure; no more queues to check-in.

All that customers need to do is to log into m.gulfair.com from their internet-enabled mobile phones, enter booking details, choose their seats and confirm. A barcode will appear on the mobile screen,which the customers can show at the boarding gate after completing the immigration checks.

Gulf Air Senior Manager Marketing Shehab Al Saeed said, “The mobile check-in facility is one more addition to our line-up of improvements towards making our passengers’ travel experience easier, faster and more enjoyable, following the recent re-launch of our website www.gulfair.com with improved features.

“Busy and time-conscious travellers do not like to waste time standing in queues to check in at airport counters; the mobile check-in facility not only saves time but also allows customers the freedom to arrive airport just in time for the scheduled boarding time.”

Currently the mobile check in facility is available in Bahrain, Copenhagen, Doha, Dubai, Frankfurt, London, Larnaca and Paris CDG airports only. More stations will be added as soon as permissions are received from respective airport authorities. 

The mobile check-in boarding pass is valid only after the travel documents are checked, verified and stamped at designated immigration counters.
