Bahrain's airport on Muharraq island, only 15 minutes from Manama's financial harbour, with the Awal Private Terminal for business aviation and easy permits. Very busy on Formula 1 weekend (March/April), when parking is pre-allocated. Also a convenient stop for eastern Saudi Arabia via the causeway.
