okay i have to partly agree with what sarvendra said. i have one such experience while flying from ktm to bahrain. the flight got cancelled and i had to stay at my sweet home for one more day, hahaha....i enjoyed it though, got one more day to eat my mom's hand made meal. :P hmm....the gulf air staffs at the ktm airport are pretty unprofessional so to speak, as they took 3 hrs to modify the itenerary of my new schedule, so yeah that sucks, but don't forget, its nepal! :P however, discrepencies are bound to happen with almost all the airlines. i would not know how consistent are gulf in screwing up the passengers' schedule hehe...need to do a bit of research on that. having said that, i have pretty good experiences as well. apart from good food and 'chwank' hostesses, on more than one occasion, while travelling from doha to ktm, since there were not many passengers in the business class, they offered me the first class (business) seat for my economy ticket. that was a pleasing experience. another plus point with gulf airways is, you'll get the tickets with more ease and at reasonable price than with other airlines, say austrian. the tickets are more easy to get even if you schedule your travel with not much time in your hand.
