Kuwait's Directorate General of Civil Aviation stated that transit operations at Kuwait International Airport remain suspended until further notice. The regulator refuted claims of an agreement with Jazeera Airways or other airlines to restart transit flights. Regulatory action has been initiated against Jazeera Airways for offering transit bookings without authorization.
Kuwait International Airport is open and handling scheduled flights via Terminals 4 and 5 on reduced schedules, while Terminal 1 remains closed for repairs following earlier strikes. Kuwait Airways operates from Terminal 4, Jazeera Airways from Terminal 5, and foreign carriers are consolidated across both facilities. Flight-tracking data recorded low disruption on Monday, though regional airspace advisories remain active.
