Gulf Air, the national airline of the Kingdom of Bahrain, has signed a multiyear renewal of Honeywell Forge software with Honeywell. Gulf Air’s decision to adopt the Honeywell Forge software follows the company’s aim to increase operational efficiencies and decrease costs associated with several factors, including unnecessary fuel burn. Honeywell’s advanced data analytics platform has proved instrumental in Gulf Air’s efforts to fly with increased operational efficiencies and lower costs.
