Dgca Needs To Allow Additional Flights To Beat Incoming Rush

Muhammad Al-Mutairi, the president of the Federation of Tourism and Travel Offices, said that if more than 50 extra flights are not added, the cost of return tickets will skyrocket.

This is in addition to the planned flights that will be landing at Kuwait International Airport in the coming days, according to Al-Qabas, citing Al-Mutairi, because the spring break extension until early next March has put significant strain on the airlines' reservation network.

Most individuals took advantage of the situation to fly overseas to celebrate their holidays because there were no entertainment options in Kuwait, according to Al-Mutairi, and the National Assembly agreed to loosen travel restrictions.

"The high demand resulted in a crazily high rise in the pricing of travel tickets over the holiday season," he said, urging airlines to request an increase in extra flights with clearance from the Directorate-General of Civil Aviation.

He claimed that if new aircraft are not allowed, there would be a massive influx of tourists and that costs will skyrocket.
