Sixth Egyptian destination via Qaisumah

Chief Executive Officer Barathan Pasupathi told KUNA that Sohag becomes the airline’s sixth Egyptian destination via Qaisumah, strengthening connectivity between Kuwait and key travel corridors.

Meeting growing demand

Pasupathi said the resumption addresses rising demand for family reunions, work trips, and personal travel, noting that the Egyptian community is Kuwait’s largest Arab expatriate group. He added that the move enhances the airline’s ability to connect passengers reliably to multiple destinations under challenging conditions.

Track record and network

Jazeera Airways has transported over 8,500 passengers between Kuwait and Egypt via Qaisumah. Its network now includes Alexandria, Cairo, Sphinx, Assiut, Luxor, and Sohag, giving travelers greater flexibility and more options for travel.
