Kuwait Aviation Authority Confirms Transit Suspension Remains in Place Until Further Notice

Kuwait’s civil aviation authority has confirmed that transit operations at Kuwait International Airport remain suspended until further notice, denying reports that they have resumed.

According to a post on the authority’s account on X, spokesperson Abdullah Al-Rajhi said it had not coordinated with Jazeera Airways or any other airline on restarting or opening transit operations.

He said administrative measures had been taken against Jazeera Airways after it announced transit services without prior approval from the authority.

Al-Rajhi said the suspension remained in force in light of current regional developments and security conditions, as part of measures protecting passengers, aircraft and airports.

He added that the administrative measures followed applicable regulations because the airline had breached approved transit decisions, instructions and controls.

Any change to the suspension or permission to resume transit services would be announced officially through the authority’s approved channels.

The authority stressed that its aviation decisions and regulatory measures reflected regional security developments and civil aviation safety and security requirements.
