TRAVEL
Kanoo Travel was launched in the late 1930s alongside the rise of Bahrain’s aviation industry. The first IATA member agency in the GCC, it has since grown to become the largest travel company in the Middle East, offering the most comprehensive and sophisticated solutions in the industry.
Today it boasts a team of over 1,445 travel specialists across the region, operating a network of 146 IATA locations. It has established world-class partnerships in Saudi Arabia, Bahrain, the UAE, Qatar, Oman, Egypt, Lebanon, the United Kingdom and France. In 1997 it became the first travel company to receive an ISO certification in the Middle East region.
Kanoo Travel specialises in corporate travel; Meetings, Incentives, Conferences, and Events (MICE); leisure and holiday travel; airline representation and marine travel. It has been consistently recognised for its premium solutions and service excellence, winning many regional industry awards.
