As of 27 October, Jazeera Airways became the first low-cost carrier from the Middle East to fly from the UK with the launch of services from London Gatwick to Kuwait.
In addition to serving Kuwait, travellers will benefit from seamless connections to the airline’s onward flights to destinations such as Dubai, Bahrain, Jeddah, Doha and Delhi, using its owned and operated Terminal 5 at Kuwait Airport which offers an excellent transit experience.
The new service from London Gatwick will be four times weekly initially, and daily from December 2019 onwards. It will be operated by a state-of-the-art Airbus A320neo aircraft in a three-class configuration: Business Class, a new Premium Economy Class and Economy Class.
The flights mark the first new service between the UK and Kuwait for 55 years, and are the longest route to be operated by the Airbus A320neo.
Rohit Ramachandran, Chief Executive Officer of Jazeera Airways, says: “From today, UK travellers will have more choice and greater value than ever before when travelling to the Middle East and beyond. For fifteen years, Jazeera Airways has provided excellent service and low fares to customers from across the Middle East and beyond, and we’re thrilled to be bringing this to the UK for the first time.”
“We are proud to be the first airline in over 50 years to offer a new service between Kuwait and the UK, helping to reinforce the strong bonds between the two nations that is marked this year by the 120th Anniversary of the Kuwaiti-British Treaty of Friendship.”
