The Kuwait Airways Corporation stated that it would get three new aircraft Airbus A330 and Airbus A320 soon.

According to Kuwait Airways CEO Maan Razouki, these aircraft are part of a line of aircraft that KAC purchased from the Airbus company in order to expand the company’s services and create one of the top aircraft fleets in the area.

Maan Razouki noted that Kuwait Airways’ ambition to grow its network of routes in the short- and medium-term around the world and achieve the intended goals will be considerably aided by the arrival of the new aircraft.

The Kuwait Airways CEO stated that the new aircraft are distinguished by their low fuel consumption and are built to be environmentally friendly, in addition to providing passengers with a comfortable flight on a modern aircraft outfitted with cutting-edge technology and a variety of entertainment options.
