    My partner & I flew from LOndon heathrow to JFK, New York in March 2009. We were slightly optimisting about Kuwait Airways after reading a dozen or so negative reports. I must say I was amazingly suprised & impressed with the quality of the plane, staff were very friendly & helpul & the food was delicious! I would recommend this airline to all my family & friends!

    I flew out from JFK bound to COK (Cochin, India) the day before Thanksgiving. Got to the check-in counter earlier than usual so the wait in the line became longer than expected. Check-in was smooth. It was while in line that I found out about the attacks going on in India. Despite a bit of anxiety, and expecting security to be on high, it was tolerable. Boarding for a 9pm flight started at 8pm and it was chaos (as always). The flight ended up being full which meant no room to breathe. I ...

    Check-in staff at JFK was efficient and polite (considering their job of dealing with thousands of passengers). Onboard, crew was pleasant as well. Then again, I'm a very low maintenance kind of a guy. I tend not to ask or expect much from cabin crews. Seats are extremely narrow in economy. It's quite difficult to adjust comfortably if you don't know the people in your row. Screens work very randomly. Food taste is quite neutral - mix of spicy and bland. Overall, Kuwait Airways is worth ...

    I flew on KU to go to Bangladesh to spend the summer. As soon as I arrived there the staff told us we had to wait for four hours. We did, but then after four hours, we had to wait another four hours because the plane wasn't here yet. Overall, I would rate it 2 from a scale to 1-10. Anyway, my trip was JFK-HAR-KU-DAC-KU-JFK.

    I flew on Kuwait Airways because I didn't have any other airlines available for the dates. So I paid top dollar for my flight out of New York. They treated me very poorly and lost both my luggage. After two weeks, they found one and reimbursed me $40 "for my inconvenience". They have yet to locate the other bag and they have shown nothing but extremely poor customer service. Its been three months now and their lack of concern and and lack of professionalism is evident of how bad an airline compa ...

    Friendly staff, delicious food, good price, 180 degree recline seat (fully-flat bed). Screens don't work on all seats, toilets dirty. Overall I'm extremely satisfied with Kuwait Airways for their dedicated services :

    Not trained, slow, no prompt action, confused, I would not recommend to take this airline even they are offering me a free tickets specially for a long distance, it is worth to pay few extra and take different carrier than this. Confused stuff. No picture and sound on TV. Very very bad seats, Broken or very hard to seat and make you feel painful for you duration.

    Value for money, Kuwait airways is not bad. If you are willing to let go of the luxuries of the flight and focus on the main goal, which is to get to your destination at the cheapest in the fastest way possible, Kuwait Airways is the way to go. However, if you want the little luxuries, such as the levels that higher star rated airlines provide, you might want to stay away from this airline, or you'll just end up terribly disappointed and might ruin a good start of the vacation.

    When we boarded the plane we were one of the first passengers to board. There was a woman passenger in the seat in front of us who was clearly unwell and she was wrapped in a blanket, coughing and shivering. A doctor was called to her half way through the flight, and the Head Kuwait Airways crew member argued with her companion that they should not have boarded the plane without seeking medical attention. Yet the crew knew how sick she was, as when we boarded she was already wrapped in a blanket ...

    Plenty of leg room is the only nice thing about Kuwait Airways. The food is of poor quality. Many screens don't show an image, often there is no sound for films or music, when there is it has a lot of noise, seats don't always recline.
