Kuwait Airways' flights to Nepal, which were suspended since 16 Falgun, 2082 due to increased geopolitical tensions in the Middle East, have resumed from today. 

Following the joint attack on Iran by the United States and Israel and the subsequent military attack on Iran due to the insecurity of the airspace created, 9 countries in the Middle East, including Kuwait, had suspended flights in their airspace, increasing security alert.

The Department of Air Transport under the Civil Aviation Authority of Nepal has granted Kuwait Airways permission for the first phase of temporary flights from Monday (18 May 2026 to 28 May 2026). 

This government airline of Kuwait will operate 2 flights a week based on passenger demand. 

A large Airbus A330 aircraft with a capacity of 235 seats will be used for this.

The Authority has placed some conditions in the flight permit for the regularity of this airline. Among them, mandatory adherence to the schedule is mandatory. Full adherence to the approved flight schedule is mandatory.

If for any reason the airline is unable to maintain its scheduled flights for more than 15 days, the Authority has warned that the flight slot will be automatically cancelled.
