Jazeera Airways first direct flight to Budapest takes off

Jazeera Airways started its direct service between Kuwait and Budapest, Hungary. The twice-weekly flights mark the first-ever non-stop air connection between the two countries, opening up exciting opportunities for tourism, business, and cultural exchange.

Barathan Pasupathi, Chief Executive Officer of Jazeera Airways, and H.E. András Szabó, Ambassador of Hungary to Kuwait, were onboard the inaugural flight on June 5, which featured a celebratory send-off for all passengers and included a unique souvenir boarding pass presented to the first passenger checked in.

The new route, welcomed by Budapest Airport and supported by Visit Hungary, offers travelers from Kuwait easy access to one of Europe’s most charming capitals, rich in history, architecture, and thermal spas.

Passengers can now book flights via the Jazeera Airways website, mobile app, or call center at 177.
Jazeera Airways also offers a range of fare bundles, products and services as well as connections beyond Kuwait to destinations across the Middle East, South Asia, and Africa.
