Air India Express wrapping up Kuwait –Mangalore flights?

Kuwait: More than 100,000 expatriates from Coastal Karnataka, Mangalore &Northern parts of Kerala are disappointed to hear that Air India Express is wrapping up its flight services to KUWAIT – MANGALORE Sector from 15th February, 2014 throwing the travel plans of the passengers into disarray.  Prominent Coastal Karnataka NRIs here in Kuwait said that by deciding to wrap up their services to Mangalore route, Air India Express has put the passengers in trouble and the travel woes of Indian Expats in Kuwait are surely going to worsen in the coming days during the summer season in 2014 as the summer vacation for thousands of school going children starts during the month of June.
 Sensing the aggravated hurdles and to address the public interest,  The UNITED ASSOCIATIONS OF KARNATAKA, Kuwait (UAKK) an Umbrella Forum of 12 Associations in Kuwait has immediately urged the Union Ministry of CIVIL AVIATION to instruct Air India Express to retain the regular flight services to Kuwait – Mangalore sector, the only direct travelling option to Mangalore for thousands of Expats from Coastal Karnataka and Northern parts of Kerala region. UAKK has also urged Ministry of Civil Aviation to consider granting permission to other Airlines such as JET AIRWAYS to operate in this sector so that the passengers will have more than one travelling option to Mangalore and Kerala.
