Kuwait-based budget carrier Jazeera Airways Group has inaugurated four new gates equipped with two hitech bridges at Kuwait International Airport.

The gates, which are being exclusively operated by Jazeera, will enable the airline to offer an even better and more efficient customer experience.

The new gates are part of the airline’s investment in on-ground facilities to capitalize on Kuwait’s growing domestic travelling population. The gates, named Gate B1, B2, B3 and B4, lift the capacity at Kuwait International Airport, the country’s only passenger airport, by 30 per cent, said a senior official.

“This latest investment in dedicated gates compliments a series of other investments in the Jazeera Airways’ value offering in the air, online, and now on-ground,” stated its chairman, Marwan Boodai.

The airline has invested heavily in boosting its customer offering in recent years, from installing online and self-check-in facilities, to securing a flow of new aircraft deliveries, with three brand new Airbus A320s joining its fleet in the last 12 months alone, he observed.

Boodai said the newly launched gates at Kuwait International Airport were an integral component of the airline’s bolstered customer offering.

“Today, Jazeera Airways passengers are the only ones in Kuwait who can book with their mobile phone, check-in online or in person using the airport kiosk, board through an exclusive gate and state-of-the-art bridges, and fly on brand new aircraft,” he added.

Jazeera is based in Kuwait and serves 20 popular destinations in the Middle East from Kuwait comprising high-demand business, leisure, family, and weekend destinations such as Dubai, Bahrain, Beirut, Alexandria, Amman, Istanbul, Sharm El Sheikh, Assiut, Luxor, Mashhad, Sohag, Jeddah, Riyadh, Cairo and Al Najaf.-TradeArabia News Service
