Overview of Kuwait Airways
If you will be flying Kuwait Airways with children, make sure to take note of the fact that the company offers infant and kid-friendly meals at no additional cost, with some food examples including purees, hamburgers, pizza, and spaghetti. Items such as toys and carry cots can also be requested on a first-come, first-serve basis in order to make your little one’s trip as enjoyable as possible.
Although the airline’s hub is located in Kuwait, the company flies to over 30 additional international destinations that can be found in the Middle East, Asia, North America, and Europe. While the United Arab Emirates and Jordan are some of the most popular countries for customers to go to in the Middle East, the Netherlands, Germany, and the United Kingdom are big destinations in Europe.
Kuwait Airways has partnerships and codeshare agreements with four other airlines, which are Yemenia, Ethiopian Airlines, Middle East Airlines, and Alitalia. One of these companies might end up helping to service one of your flights.
With over five different types of aircrafts in its possession, Kuwait Airways has managed to create an impressive fleet that is composed of just over 25 individual planes. Most of the aircrafts are either Airbus or Boeing, and the most commonly flown is the Airbus A320-200, a plane that can fit up to 130 passengers and is often used for short to medium-range flights. However, for longer international flights, the airline oftentimes employs the Boeing 777-300ER, as it is a large plane that can fit upwards of 300 individuals, including the crew.
