Indian Ambassador to Kuwait H.E. Paramita Tripathi held a virtual meeting with representatives of Indian air carriers operating in Kuwait to review the current operational status of flights in light of the temporary closure of Kuwaiti airspace.

During the interaction, the ambassador discussed the status of flights to and from Kuwait following the government’s decision to suspend air traffic from February 28, 2026 due to the ongoing regional security situation.

The Indian envoy stressed the importance of maintaining close coordination between the embassy and the airlines to ensure timely assistance for Indian nationals in Kuwait, particularly those who require emergency travel to India.

She reaffirmed that the safety, security, and well-being of the Indian community in Kuwait remain the embassy’s highest priority.

The meeting included representatives from major Indian carriers such as Akasa Air, IndiGo, and Air India Express.

The initiative comes as the embassy continues to coordinate with relevant authorities and airlines to support Indian citizens during the current regional developments.
