Dubai: With Kuwait threatening to disallow landing of India's state-owned carriers at its capital from Sunday, an Indian high-level delegation will visit the gulf country today to sort out the issue.
Kuwait's proposed action is likely to hit thousands of passengers planning to fly to India during summer holidays.
The crisis for passengers between India and Kuwait was aggravated after the latter issued a notice to 'Air India' and 'Indian' saying it will not receive flights of the airlines from July 1.
While civil aviation authorities of both the countries are engaged in a second round of negotiations in New Delhi, the team which will include representatives from the Ministry of Civil Aviation, Director-General Civil Aviation, Air India and Indian Airlines are arriving in Kuwait on Thursday, Indian officials told reporters over phone from Kuwait. The Indian ambassador to Kuwait, M Ganapathy will also take part in the talks.
The talks are part of an ongoing process which will discuss all the matters on the table, the official added.
