Wizz Air Abu Dhabi, the ultra-low-fare national airline of the UAE, has on Monday added Kuwait City to its ever-expanding network, its fifth key destination in the Gulf region. The new route will strengthen connectivity within the GCC by providing an alternative ultra-low fare travel option for passengers between the two Gulf countries.

This falls in line with the national airline’s ambitions to provide tourists and residents with hassle-free, affordable travel in the UAE and throughout the region. Tickets are on sale now on wizzair.com and on the airline’s mobile app, with fares starting from just Dhs99.

Kuwait City is home to some of the top tourist attractions in Kuwait. These include Sheikh Jaber Al-Ahmad Cultural Center, the Grand Mosque of Kuwait and Sheikh Abdullah Al Salem Cultural Center. The city is also known for its Souq Al Mubarakiya, one of the country’s oldest markets, which offers an authentic shopping experience. Kuwait City is a destination where you can find the finest antiques, furniture and carpets, as well as traditional Arab clothing, to experience the finest Arabian culture during your visit.

By adding Kuwait to our network, we move forward towards enhancing connectivity with our neighbour countries across the GCC, which provides travellers the opportunity to explore the Arabian culture in different Middle Eastern countries.
