Below is a comparison between the old airport taxi prices and the recently updated ones. I tried to be as accurate as possible but they’ve divided up the areas in the new pricing system slightly so it was a bit confusing creating this list. For example Hawalli and Salmiya were both KD5 previously but now Hawalli is KD7 and Salmiya is KD8.

….so they added the prices for almost all their destinations?
Try London limo 60005466
I have tried them, had a very bad experience, they gave me a time of pick up at 6:30 AM and they showed up 45 min late almost missed the flight and instead of apologizing the driver asked for 10 KD while I was quoted 5 KD for the trip from Zahra to the airport and only after several calls I and a one hour delay I got to the plan, by then I had to wait on a long line to check in and had no more good seats left. Take the airport taxi still less danger than London limo
tough luck.. good with me every time.
ummm… you’re supposed to use the airport taxi on the way out of the airport and not when you’re going to the airport..
I usually just stop one of the taxis in the street (in Salmiya), and they are grateful to take 2 KD to the airport..
Usually prices increase when the cost of gas increases but considering gas is still dirt cheap they probably all got together and decided to form their own dwaniya union and everyone agreed to raise it, time is money!
I am one of the airport taxi drivers, first: Airport Taxi is subject to the laws of the Department of Civil Aviation, They put Tariff and not taxi drivers. Second: the old tariff since 1993 until 2013, and this for a very long time, compared to the rest of the world.
Third: If you want to link between the pricing of fuel and the price of taxi? Then know that the price of fuel has increased twice during the past twenty years, however, has not changed the pricing of the taxi in that period!!
Before I end my writing, I would like to say that the increase of dinars to three dinars after firming prices for twenty years is simple and does not deserve the hype:)

I never knew airport cabs are this expensive. They’re really expensive. With these prices, it makes more sense to just get the airport limo service. At least with that you get a super clean luxury car (I heard BMW 7-series), and their prices are pretty close to these cab fares.
Farwaniya – 5kd
lol. I’m walking.
Please Tell me the truth, how much you pay for Taxi from Farwānīyah to the airport? Not less than three dinars, note : that the public taxi small and narrow and does not carry a baggage of many, and often the air conditioning is not good .. Dear: It is known in all countries of the world that the pricing of airport taxi more than public taxi ,,,not only in Kuwait 🙂
It must be to pay for all the recent improvements – brand new, high quality vehicles; caring, polite, considerate drivers . . . Or not.
I haven’t taken an airport cab since they were orange and were driven by geriatrics that had no business operating a motor vehicle. Good luck guys.
bad news as i always use airport taxis
I have noticed that the “Limo taxi” service (operated by KGL I think) is not present at the moment. Previously it was 2-3 KD more expensive than the regular taxi, but with the price increase that brings it up to the same price as the Limo taxi. The Limo taxi weren’t special at all considering that they use FORD CARS. They had recently brought in a few SUVs.
I do not know if they will be back, perhaps with the price increase of regular taxis, they will bring in better cars, and of course a price increase, or maybe another company will now operate the service.
This is freaking ridiculous. When I got back from the states this last time the dude told me 8 KD to Egaila. I told him to f**k off and that I had been here 3 years not 3 minutes and to stop trying to screw new people. Then he pulled out a paper and showed me. That is like 2 kd on a regular taxi meter. The government is ridiculous with the pricing and spending.
Was shocked today when I took a Taxi from the airport to Salem Mubarak Street, 8KD wtf !!! The driver was very impolite, I wasn’t prepared and didn’t read what was written on the window as I didn’t expect a price change ..why ?? Petrol is as cheap as ever and the drivers as incompetent and rude as ever. They complain when they carry a suitcase ! Anyway he held my suitcase back until I went into my building to get three KDs as I only had 5 cash on me ! He could have said it politer instead I wasn’t intending of running away ! I felt tricked so I Checked online and noticed that kuwaitbairport website still has the old fares : https://www.kuwait-airport.com.kw/Public/taxi_e.htm
Thanks for your blog Marc ! Feel safe again in Kuwait! Almost lost faith ! Still think it is far too expensive !
The main reason to raise the price of airport taxi, is a vast difference between him and Limousine, where prices Limousine high contrast airport taxi, causing loss to the company Limousine, noted that the company paid large sum of money for the airport compared to give it the right to run the limousine, and airport management will not accept a loss that company!!!
