Bahrain International Airport (IATA: BAH, ICAO: OBBI) (Arabic: مطار البحرين الدولي) is an international airport located in Muharraq, an island on the northern tip of Bahrain, about 7 km (4 miles) northeastern the centre of the capital Manama. It is the primary hub for Gulf Air and Bahrain Air.
A BD113m ($300 million) expansion and refurbishment program was launched in the third quarter of 2006 which will see the creation of a new multi-storey car park and retail complex adjacent to the main terminal building. The expansion also includes a full resurfacing of the main runway, a new perimeter fence, state-of-the-art security systems and additional aircraft parking bays. Runway 12R/30L is mostly used as a taxiway.
The airport has a three star rating from Skytrax's airport grading exercise along with seven other airports.[1]
The first scheduled commercial airliner to arrive in Bahrain, in 1932, was a flight from London to Delhi operated on a Handley Page H.P.42 aircraft named Hannibal. The H.P.42 carried only 24 passengers, and the flight from London had taken several days of flying at speeds of 100 miles per hour. Through this regularly scheduled sevice, Bahrain became established as the Persian Gulf's first international airport.[2]
During World War II, the airport was used by the United States Army Air Force Air Transport Command Central African Wing, being designated as Station # 13. It functioned as a stopover en-route to Abadan Airport, Iran or Sharjah Airport, Oman on the Karachi-Cairo route.[3] From the end of World War II until Bahrain's independence in December 1971, the Royal Air Force maintained a military installation at the airfield known as RAF Muharraq. The majority of these facilities were later acquired by the Bahraini flag carrier airline, Gulf Air, while a small portion continues to be utilized by the U.S. Navy as Aviation Support Unit (ASU) Bahrain.

The second Bahrain International Airshow (BIAS) has come to a close with its reservations book for the next edition in 2014 looking extremely healthy. Many of this year's participating companies also took part in the inaugural event in 2010 and are now already looking forward to repeating the experience again in two years time, proof beyond doubt that this event has established itself as a unique and significant addition to the international Airshow calendar.

Bahrain International Airshow 2014: Arrivals & Practice
Bahrain International Airshow 2014 (Arrivals, Practice). Video by Master Sgt. Pedro Jimenez | U.S. Air Forces Central Command Public Affairs | Date: 01.14.2014. U.S. Central Command (USCENTCOM), U.S. Air Forces Central Command (USAFCENT) and U.S. Naval Forces Central Command (USNAVCENT) are supporting the Bahrain International Air Show (BIAS) 2014. This year's BIAS 14, is scheduled for 16-18 January 2014 at Sakhir Air Base in Manama, Bahrain. It is anticipated this year's BIAS will attract up to 1,000 exhibitors from nearly 50 countries and more than 55,000 visitors. This year, the United States is showcasing a variety of our military aircraft through static displays, including the following: C-130J Hercules, F-15E Strike Eagle, F-18E/F Hornet, MV-22 Osprey, and UH-1Y Huey Venom, AH-1Z Viper and MH-53E Sea Dragon helicopters. The U.S. Air Force will also have a B-1 Lancer and F-22 Raptor flyby, but will not perform any aerial demonstrations. The aircrew and aircraft participating are all from locations in the CENTCOM AOR. The BIAS is an internationally acclaimed air show and is rapidly becoming a premier aviation and air industry event. This event is just one way the United States and its allies and partners work together to promote security, stability and mutual interests in the region. U.S. participation also builds upon our strong relationship with Bahrain and enhances our relationships with other allies and partners in the region.
