Kuwait’s Jazeera steps up to London Heathrow services
Kuwaiti budget carrier Jazeera Airways is to open London Heathrow services from mid-June, two years after commencing operations at London Gatwick. The airline says it will operate its initial flight on 18 June, and serve the route from Kuwait weekly.

He says this demand includes interest from business passengers, tourists and students from the Gulf emirate. Jazeera’s reservations system indicates that the airline will use Airbus A320neo jets on the route.<br/>
