Kuwait Airways Expands International Routes

The five new direct international routes that Kuwait Airways is adding in 2026 will improve connectivity between the Gulf and Europe and Asia, as well as expand its global network. The major new destinations are Mykonos (Greece) with twice-weekly flights since June 14, Moscow three times weekly, Beijing due to business relationships, Maldives due to an opulent vacation, and Phuket due to a vacation on the beach. The growth is in support of more than 60 destinations, with a focus on leisure as well as trade travelers to tap into the increasing demand. Direct flights also do away with layovers making Kuwait an important aviation hub as well as boosting tourism. Schedules are done in line with the best seasons to make the best bookings.​
