Gulf carrier Kuwait Airways will significantly reduce flights between Kuwait City and Manila during the Northern summer 2024 season, according to an article from AeroRoutes.com.

The airline is scheduled to cut its weekly services on this route from seven to three flights between June 3rd and September 29th, 2024.

Additionally, from September 30th to October 26th, 2024, the Gulf carrier will reduce flights to six weekly.

The flight adjustments will affect Kuwait Airways flights KU-417 and KU-418, operated by Boeing 777-300ER aircraft.

Flight KU-417 will depart from Kuwait City at 02:10 (UTC+3) and arrive in Manila at 16:55 (UTC+8) on Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays.

Meanwhile, the return flight, KU-418, will leave Manila at 23:05 and land in Kuwait City at 04:05 the next day.

Passengers who currently hold bookings for dates included in this schedule change should expect to be contacted by Kuwait Airways for rebooking options.

Aside from Kuwait Airways, Philippine Airlines has also reduced flights from Manila to various Middle Eastern cities.

From August to October 2024, select flights to Dammam, Doha, and Riyadh are expected to have temporarily reduced flight frequencies.
