Loyalty points awarded for one way flights
As well as earning miles each time you fly with Gulf Air, you're also credited with loyalty points; the exact number depends on the route and class you fly. As soon as you've earned the number of loyalty points required for Silver or Gold membership within a 12 month period, you're immediately moved up to that level. Your new membership status is then valid for a year.
To qualify initially for Silver membership you need 900 points, but you only need 630 to re-qualify for a second or subsequent year. The requirement for a second or subsequent year of Gold membership drops from 2,500 to 1,750 points.
The Falconflyer programme divides the Gulf Air network into zones.
