In a bid to attract new customers, Lufthansa is running a deal where travellers booking before May 14th and departing by July 30th can pay from 524 for economy and 2,105 for a business class flight.
Bahrain, once thought by some to be home to the Garden of Eden, is now famous for such things as its Formula One Grand Prix and its appeal to celebrities such as Shakira and Jenson Button.
By connecting to Bahrain, Lufthansa now boasts of serving every country in the Middle East except Iraq and Syria.
Flights are scheduled to depart Frankfurt at 1310 local time, arriving in Manama at 2000 local time and the deal is subject to certain booking and other fees.
