This is crap, because GF fully flexible economy ticket is very expensive, for example you pay2180 EUR FRA-MNL r/t, and you get the upgrade only one-way, c'mon, this is an insult of intelligence! I mean Gulf Air, not OP! :D
Only worthwhile offer I discovered was 159 BHD = 422 USD economy r/t ticket BAH-LON

Agree,only a one way upgrade-and many flights are blocked if you use their site,especially the day flights.
LHR/BAH return is £337 Econ Prom and £1246!!! for Econ freedom, £1455 Bus Prom and £2927!!! for Bus freedom
Also if you check first seat availability there are not many available on day flights-cannot understand reasoning unless they need to fill Business on night flights.
