Flight Attendant News

Cabin Service Managers who work for Gulf Air will don stylish new uniforms later this week. At Gulf Air, Cabin Service Managers manage all aspects of the in-flight service including the supervision of the team of Flight Attendants. The new uniform will distinguish them from the rest of the crew "so that passengers can identify and approach them, should they require their services."

According to an article on the Al Bawaba website:

The new outfit has been designed by internationally renowned, Paris-based designer house, 'Creation & Image,' creators of Balmain brand uniforms.

"Gulf Air's inflight costume is a reflection of what Gulf Air is all about – the hallmark Arabian hospitality, warmth, presentation, progression, modernity and above all, our corporate statement," says Gulf Air Vice President of Marketing and Sales Lee Shave.

...

The entire Balmain Uniform Design Team worked for months to define the new image, under the guidance of its Artistic Director Christophe Galibert.

"We had several brainstorming sessions on how to express the soul, sprit and elegance of Gulf Air in the uniform," says Galibert.

"We have tried to fuse a timelessness and modernity at the same time without being too fancy and maintaining the visual link and identity with the cabin crew uniform."

Gulf Air employs 1,962 Flight Attendants representing 80 different nationalities out of which 270 are Cabin Service Managers.
