Gulf Air, the national carrier of Bahrain, has appointed Waleed Dagher as the new country manager in Manila, Philippines.

Manila is rapidly growing as a premium touristic city and surrounded by beautiful popular holiday destinations throughout the Philippines such as Cebu, Boracay and Palawan, in addition to being one of Gulf Airs busiest routes served by its new Boeing 787-9 Dreamliner.

The new country manager will take on the challenge to maintain and gradually increase the airlines market share in this particular route and subsequently in the feeder markets to and from the Philippines.

With his previous 12 years of service for Gulf Air, which included being a country manager for the airlines station in Abu Dhabi and Al Ain in the UAE, Dagher proved his enthusiasm and efforts in enhancing the airlines name and brand image globally. Gulf Air has been proudly flying passengers to Manila since 1979 and it maintains a key role within the strong ties between Bahrain and the Philippines.

What an honour it is to return to my Gulf Air family. Manila, now my second home, has so much potential and I am beyond proud to have this opportunity to manage Gulf Airs station here.

Gulf Air has a very bright future and I am sure that one day, under the leadership of the airlines executive management, the national carrier of the Kingdom of Bahrain will become one of the top airlines in the world," he added.

Gulf Airs newest country manager will take on the demanding duty of representing both Gulf Air and the Kingdom of Bahrain in the Philippines and the Far East. - TradeArabia News Service
