Thousands Of Egyptians, Indians Continue To Arrive In Kuwait

A week after the resumption of direct flights from India and Egypt, the Directorate-General for Civil Aviation (DGCA) reported that operations at Kuwait International Airport were flowing smoothly in line with plans and procedures set up to meet the expected increase in flights and passengers.

DGCA added that with continuing improvement in the country’s epidemiological situation, and approval from the authorities, it would be possible to further increase operations at the airport, in a gradual and phased manner. The Civil Aviation authority also noted that the decision to increase the number of passengers arriving each day to 10,000, had allowed more aircraft from more destinations to operate flights to the country.

Data shows that with aircraft allowed to fly directly from Egypt and India since last week, a total of 174 flights had arrived from these two countries — 89 from Egypt and 85 from India. Also, from 5 to 11 September, the number of passengers arriving on flights from the two countries totaled 17,843 — 10,261 from Egypt and 7,582 from India of these flights who entered Kuwait during the period from 5 to 11 September reached 17,843, including 10,261 travelers from Egypt and 7,582 from India.
