It's official: Al Musallam in the pilot's seat
Maher Salman Jabber Al Musallam (front row, centre) has been officially installed as Gulf Air's CEO. He joined the Bahrain-based carrier as deputy CEO, and took over the helm of the airline as acting CEO in December 2012.
A seasoned aviation professional Al Musallam has, with Gulf Air's executive management team, spearheaded the national carrier's 2013 restructuring strategy to deliver ground-breaking results – most significantly the record reduction in the airline's annual losses.
The announcement is a direct result of Al Musallam and Gulf Air's executive management team efforts leading to three consecutive years of landmark achievements – a true turnaround for Bahrain’s national carrier that now opens up the airline to new growth and development opportunities.
The support of Gulf Air's executive management team lays the groundwork of Gulf Air's strategic vision for controlled growth, while further promoting the kingdom of Bahrain at home and abroad.
