    Free wifi on my Gulf Airlines flight from Bahrain to Lahore, Pakistan.

    Just thought I'd cement this occasion in ClutchFans/aviation history.

    Carry on.

    In other news iran just shut down what they believe is an American drone. Sources say this flying object was approximately 35,000 feet above ground.

    The question should be why are you flying Gulf when Qatar and Emirates are options in that region.

    I booked a roundtrip flight back in July from Houston for $497 all in. Couldn't be picky about the airline with a price like that :)

    I used gmail to make my calls when I was in europe just fine. When I was in Iran the option to place call in my gmail was not there. It seems like when you are there you are not able to do it.

    Lahore and Islamabad are probably the best states in Pakistan.

    Alot better than that hell hole Karachi.
