British Airways flights to Kuwait land at Kuwait International Airport, ten
miles south of Kuwait City. Taxis or buses will take you to the centre of Kuwait
City. Soon after your Kuwait flight lands you'll be sipping a strong Turkish
coffee – or trying a shisha hubble-bubble pipe - in one of Kuwait
City's coffee houses. The observation deck at Kuwait Towers is a good
place for an aerial orientation of the city after your Kuwait flight. To round off your
first day in Kuwait City, choose traditional Arabic cuisine or anything from sushi to
steak in one of Salmiya's many restaurants.
Travel to/from Kuwait
Once your Kuwait flight has landed, you'll find taxi and
limousine desks in the Flight Arrivals hall. Departing from outside the
Flight Arrivals area, air-conditioned green-and-white buses are a cheaper
option. These run 24 hours a day to whisk you from Kuwait airport post-flight to
Kuwait City, a journey of approximately 30 minutes.
Best of Kuwait
Flights to Kuwait transport you to Kuwait City, a blend of old and new. Admire
Islamic art at the Tareq Rajab Museum, and take flight on wild rides at
Entertainment City theme park. Before your return flights, choose
designer goods in Kuwait City's shiny new shopping malls, but be sure to
explore the traditional covered souk markets in Kuwait City to bargain for
gold or spices to bring back on your flights from Kuwait. Take a boat trip to
snorkel the coral reefs around Kubbar Island or visit the ancient ruins on
Failaka Island.
