It is good to be back in Manchester, a recent weekend spent catching up on not only carriers that have a major base within the region, but also many new carriers that have recently commenced service to the area. Rather than just a quick one-stop, a 2 day visit felt more appropriate.

Kuwait Airways is one of the more recent airlines to commence flights into Manchester, the flag-carrier in recent years has been undergoing major fleet renewal. Apart from the Boeing 777-300ERs, all of the airline's fleet consists of new generation aircraft ranging from the smaller Airbus A320neo family aircraft to the Airbus A330neo family.

Kuwait Airways commenced flights into Manchester on 1st May 2022 from their main hub at Kuwait City; initially the flag-carrier operates thrice weekly utilising Airbus A320neos, by early-2023 saw capacity increase with the now withdrawn Airbus A330-200s being utilised before later transitioning over to the unique Airbus A330-800.

Today, Kuwait Airways still operates thrice weekly; KU113/114 is typically scheduled with Airbus A330-900s which were first introduced in late-2024 with the occasional use of Airbus A330-800s. Airbus A321neos have also appeared albeit very rarely.

Currently, Kuwait Airways operates 7 Airbus A330s, which includes 4 Airbus A330-800s and 3 Airbus A330-900s. Kuwait Airways have 4 Airbus A330-900s on-order.

Alpha Papa Juliet is one of 3 Airbus A330-900s operated by Kuwait Airways, delivered new to the flag-carrier on 9th December 2024 and she is powered by 2 Rolls-Royce Trent 7000-72 engines. She is named after Kuwait's largest island, Bubiyan Island.

MPs and families of the activists were also at the airport. Israel released 449 of the some 600 foreign activists who had been on board the Gaza aid flotilla and were subsequently detained by Israel in a prison in the south of the country, a spokeswoman for Israel Prison Service said. Israel also said it dispatched 10 truckloads of the aid on board the flotilla to the Kerem Shalom crossing point for transportation into Gaza over land, including medical equipment, wheel chairs, and some food.

The Kuwait Towers are three towers of reinforced concrete in Kuwait City. The main tower is 187 metres high and serves as a restaurant and water tower. It also has a Viewing Sphere which rises to 123 meters above sea level and completes a full round turn every 30 minutes. The second tower is 145.8 metres high and serves as a water tower. The third tower houses equipment to control the flow of electricity and illuminates the two bigger towers. The towers were designed by Sune Lindström and Malene Björn and were built by a Serbian company. They opened to the public in March of 1979. In 1991, after the liberation of Kuwait City during the First Gulf War, Vic Clarke of Nottingham UK abseiled the Kuwait Water Towers during structural surveys. Mr. Clarke was introduced into Kuwait by Mr. Michael Stewart, of The Stewart Group International, also from Nottingham UK. There was substantial shell, and bullet damage to the exterior of the towers. The interior damage was mainly to electrical gear, mostly lift equipment. Some of the large triangular glazed panels shown in the photograph, were also damaged by shell fire.

Kuwait

One of the most distinct architectural expressions in the Middle East or anywhere else in the world, the Kuwait Towers are a cultural icon and a symbol of how geographically small nations can achieve great things. While there are three spheres and three towers, not all of them are for storage. The first tower is 140 meters tall and supports a water-holding sphere. The second tower is 180 meters tall. It also carries a restaurant and a cafeteria. The third tower has no spheres at all. It is used for lighting. The towers hold 4,500 cubic meters of water which then flows into the homes and businesses of Kuwait city. The design is excellent, being both very modern and very Arabic at the same time.

Built : 1979

Designed by Sune Lindström and Malene Björn

I went to Alwafra with some family members, located close to the southern border of Kuwait. It is one of the rare areas where agriculture can work in this desert country. I had fun time shooting my cousins and some kids. I also shot some birds, horses, and monkeys in their cages. For those who think it is Emarati 3a9amyiah, it is just a random tie my cousin made around his head. update: he told me he can do the 3a9amiah well :P
