Kuwait's Jazeera Airways has announced the launch of direct flights to Aswan in Egypt, with 4 weekly flights from 25 October 2026, adding a new destination to its network between Kuwait and Egypt.
Mohamed Abou El Wafa, Egypt's Ambassador to Kuwait, said at the press conference launching the destination that Aswan was chosen because of its standing as one of Egypt's leading tourist and cultural destinations, with its archaeological sites and distinctive nature on the banks of the Nile, according to a post on the Kuwait News Agency's Facebook page.
He added that Aswan is a gateway to southern Egypt and a cultural and economic center, as well as being important for the Egyptian community living in Kuwait. Abou El Wafa noted that making travel between Egypt and Kuwait easier supports cooperation opportunities between the two countries and helps strengthen people-to-people, economic and trade ties.
