Jazeera Airways is introducing bi-weekly charter flights connecting Kuwait to Mangaluru, with a stopover in Dammam, starting April 8. The Directorate General of Civil Aviation has approved these limited services, scheduled for Wednesdays and Sundays.

The journey entails a road trip from Kuwait to Dammam, crossing the Kuwait-Saudi border for necessary immigration and security checks before flying to Mangaluru. This procedure will repeat for the return journey, with Dammam serving as the transit point back to Kuwait.

Flight J9 3417 is set to depart Kuwait at 8:40 am, reaching Mangaluru by 4:10 pm IST. The return flight, J9 3418, takes off from Mangaluru at 4:55 pm IST, landing in Kuwait by 7:40 pm. Jazeera Airways intends to potentially double the service frequency from two to four weekly flights, pending clearance.
