Gulf Traveller was founded on 1 June 2003 as part of the Gulf Air three year restructuring and turnaround program instigated by the CEO at that time James Hogan. The model behind Gulf Air was to economise on routes with low demand for first or business class passengers.
Gulf Traveller was the all-economy full service subsidiary airline of Gulf Air. Its main base was initially Abu Dhabi International Airport and hubs was Bahrain International Airport, Seeb International Airport. It was briefly relocated between Bahrain and Muscat airports after Abu Dhabi pulled out of the Gulf Air consortium in 2005, and in May 2007 Oman also pulled out of the group leaving Bahrain as sole owner of Gulf Air. Subsequently Gulf Traveller permanently ceased operations due to these change.
Executive: Ahmed AlHammadi (Acting CEO).
