Another Kuwaiti airline to fly to Baku
By Amina Nazarli
Another Kuwaiti airline Wataniya Airways will start regular
flights from Kuwait to Baku.
The first flight from en route Kuwait - Baku is scheduled for July
12.
The flights will be operated twice a week on Wednesdays and Saturdays by Airbus A-320 aircraft. The price for one-way air tickets starts from 72 Kuwaiti dinars (about $240).
The airline was founded in 2006 and received an Air Operators Certificate in July 2008. It started services with an Airbus A320 in January 2009 from the Sheikh Saad General Aviation Terminal and provided flights from Kuwait to destinations across the Persian Gulf, wider Middle East and Europe.
Wataniya Airways was the first and only commercial airline to operate its flights out of a private terminal in Kuwait.
The day before, Jazeera Airways performed its first flight from Kuwait to Baku. The airline will carry out flights twice a week on Mondays and Fridays.
Kuwait is among 93 countries which can enjoy Azerbaijan’s ASAN Visa system, through which travelers will be able to receive electronic visas in three steps (appeal, payment and loading of an electronic visa) within three hours.
Visa on arrival for Kuwaitis and electronic visas through ASAN Visa system make it easy to travel to the city. E-Visa is valid for 30 days for a fee of $20.
