Al Jazeera's H1 net profit was 8.6m KWD
Kuwait Airways achieved profits of 8.6 million Kuwaiti dinars for the first half of 2026, despite geopolitical and operational challenges that led to a 10.3% year-over-year decrease in profitability. The company faced a temporary closure of Kuwait International Airport and ongoing operational restrictions throughout the first half, but responded with the "Baraka" initiative, connecting Kuwait with the world through alternative flights in Saudi Arabia. Despite rising fuel prices and reduced operational capacity, revenues increased by 13.4% to 115.8 million dinars, driven by sustained travel demand and operational efficiency. The airline operated 11,106 flights, transported 1.5 million passengers, with a seat occupancy rate of 79.1%. It continued expanding its network and launching direct flights to new cities, focusing on adapting to challenging operational conditions to achieve profitability and sustainable growth.
