Jazeera Airways hoped to synergies its processes with Kuwait Airways, including operations at Kuwait International and using the Kuwaiti national carrier’s long-haul network to feed its own regional flights.
According to Hubbard, the low-cost hybrid carrier is looking at starting flights to London, Paris and possibly Singapore, if it can no longer purchase a controlling state in Kuwait Airways.
I wouldn’t mind flying to London with Jazeera Airways as long as the planes are clean. I stopped flying with them to Beirut and Dubai simply because the plane interiors got so old and worn out.
Jazeera Airways plans to build its own terminal, including valet parking — an oddity for low-cost airlines in Europe but not the Gulf where a hybrid model has seen the introduction of business seats and included baggage allowance.
The terminal construction, built onto the four gates Jazeera Airways is operating from at Kuwait International, will likely start in the first quarter 2016 and take a year to complete at a cost of €20 million (Dh112.67 million), Hubbard said.
There has been talk on Jazeera building their own terminal for some time now, in fact there are two Jazeera terminal renderings I am aware of which I’ve shared in this post. If they have their own entrance separate from the current airport thats going to be a huge plus for sure until the new airport is built. Check out the full article [Here]

Some of their flights are very dirty… I took some pictures and posted them… Maybe it will be different when traveling to London and Paris (different crowd & longer distances should probably have it’s own planes)…
do you have a link to the photos?
Here is one picture… you can enlarge it…

Long-haul flight on a budget airline?
I think I will stick with UL business class since their fares are unbeatable 🙂

Srilankan Airlines

I copy pasted from the article, good to know i’m not the only one that screws up words and grammar
No issues … just a common typo and spell check combo. No one is immune!
Dirty, dirty, dirty planes and terrible customer experience on ground and on board. i have been avoiding them for over 2 years now.
For an hour urgent flight maybe, but being stuck for a long haul flight with them is a NO WAY even if for 10 KD.
They make it a point to make you feel cheap while their prices are becoming more expensive than normal airlines.
They are only in business because there is no other local carrier, once KA or another Wataniya opens up they will go back to their true size.
Despite on the cleanness issues and the staff, I dont agree on the part that they are not successful even if there is another Wataniya… They are targeting the right market and making a huge success… Wataniya could not complete…
At least people that fly KU long haul should
not be complaining. They are a vastly superior
product than KU which itself is not saying much but even so.
Both Kuwait Airways & Jazeera are getting their own terminals and should be operational by mid 2017
They’ll have to get new aircraft since their current fleet of A320s doesn’t have the range to fly to London, Paris or Singapore.
