Jazeera Airways has achieved a significant milestone in restoring essential travel links between India and Kuwait, relaunching flights from eight Indian cities to Kuwait via Qaisumah Airport (AQI) in Hafar Al Batin, Kingdom of Saudi Arabia, under Project Vande Bharat.
The service now operates from Ahmedabad, Bengaluru, Chennai, Delhi, Hyderabad, Mumbai, Kochi, and Thiruvananthapuram – offering the first available travel connection for passengers seeking to reach Kuwait since regional airspace closures and the temporary suspension of operations at Kuwait International Airport. With Jazeera Airways currently the only airline operating from Kuwait, the resumption of this service carries considerable significance for the large Indian diaspora community in the Gulf nation.
Given the ongoing regional operational constraints, the travel arrangement involves a carefully structured overland component. Passengers flying from India will arrive at Qaisumah Airport, from where specially arranged buses will transport them onward into Kuwait -ensuring uninterrupted continuity of travel despite the challenges posed by the current environment. Passengers departing Kuwait to India will follow the same route in reverse.
Beyond the India–Kuwait corridor, Jazeera Airways has been steadily expanding the network of destinations accessible from Kuwait during this period, with services currently operating to Alexandria, Assiut, Cairo, Luxor, Amman, Istanbul, Colombo, and Al Ain – maintaining vital travel links for passengers across multiple regions.
Passengers wishing to travel from India to Kuwait are required to hold a valid Kuwait residency. Bookings can be made through the airline’s website at jazeeraairways.com or via the Jazeera App. The airline has indicated that additional frequencies and destinations will be introduced on a gradual basis as the situation continues to evolve.
