Gulf Air Miles to What Airlines????
 

We're going RT BAH-IST-BAH later this month on Gulf Air. Turkish doesn't fly the days we need to go. We don't have a FF account with Gulf. Just learned they aren't partners with UA. Anyway, I can't find which airlines partner with Gulf so I can xfer my miles from the trip. Can anyone help out? Thanks in advance. (PS - tried to send this from the office and Internet crashed, so I hope I'm not double posting. If so, please forgive.)

They codeshare with BMI and Virgin Atlantic but only on specific routes. Don't know of any partners that would be useful to you unless Virgin is. Gulf's Falcon Club is not that great unless flying full fare.

On Virgin:

Miles earned
First Class 300% of miles flown
Discounted First 70% of above
Business Class 200% of miles flown
Discounted Business 70% of above
Economy 100% of miles flown
Discounted Economy 50% of above

Miles may be earned for travel in ticket classes F,A,J,C,Y,H,M.
(so Virgin may not offer much either if flying on deep discount fare).
