Kuwait's Government approves request for Jazeera Airways terminal building at Kuwait Airport

Jazeera Airways announced (19-Jul-2016) it received a letter from Kuwait's Directorate General for Civil Aviation notifying the airline of the Cabinet's approval for designating land for construction and operation of a dedicated passenger terminal and car park buildings. The terminal was suggested by the airline to ease congestion at Kuwait International Airport. The project requires an investment of KWD14 million (USD46 million) with construction time expected to be 15 months. The terminal is part of the airline's 'Next Big Thing' series of initiatives aimed at creating a better travel experience. Other initiatives include a remote check-in facility, in-flight broadband internet, a business class lounge and long-haul services. [more - original PR]
