Jazeera Airways launches non-stop flights to Hurghada, Egypt

Jazeera Airways announced the launch of its newest route from Kuwait to the Red Sea coastal town and popular summer holiday resort of Hurghada in Egypt.

Jazeera will fly five times a week from Kuwait daily except Tuesday and Friday at 11:30 PM.

Steven Greenway, Jazeera Airways' Chief Commercial Officer, said: “Hurghada is a hugely popular destination, visited by tourists from around the globe who are attracted to the town's stunning natural beauty as well as the famed Egyptian hospitality. We are very excited to be launching this destination in time for summer, so passengers can book their perfect getaway to the temperate coast and escape the Gulf's summer heat. By providing excellent flight times, leather seating and of course our low fares, we are expecting Hurghada to be a really popular choice, and as the only low-fare airline in the Middle East offering direct flights to the town, we look forward to welcoming both existing and new passengers aboard Jazeera.”

The airline expects to add an additional five cities to its network over the summer, focusing on tourist hotspots including Shiraz in Iran, Aleppo in Syria and Larnaca in Cyprus.
