BAH Connection into Gulf Air flight

How is connecting at BAH if arriving with BA from London and connecting to a Gulf Air flight to MLE?
1. Do we have to exit (immigration etc) so check-in or could we simply check-in in App/online prior (no checked luggage...)?
2. Is there a Gulf Air counter, where we can check-in without exiting and going back again?
3. Can we go to Gulf Air in LHR to check in, so to simply move from deplaning gate to Gulf Air departure gate?

Definitely no need to exit in BAH.
So yes check in on line.
As soon as you arrive in BAH there is GF transfers counter.
I don't know re GF at LHR , however would that be necessary if checked in online ? The transfer desk in BAH would print paper BP if you asked for it.

Sorry I didn't see this earlier -- Gulf Air and BA are in different terminals in LHR so you can't go see them -- and I've never been able to get a gulf air BP in advance anywhere but in Bahrain -- you can "check in" but no BP until the airport... Bahrain just opened their brand new airport and connections are really easy -- just follow the signs upon arrival -- no worries at all....

The new airport is essentially now one big terminal -- the TK flight will not be far away -- once you ahve arrived just look for the transiting passengers / transit security signs and be prepared to show your onward ticket and you should have no issues.... It's quite a nice airport!
