Kuwaitkars, Pl check if this is any better than the ill-
famed Indian or Indian Airlines.

My comments:
My neighbours travelled Air Jazeera on 04 and 17 July.
The aircraft are brand new hence interiors better than
Kuwait air.
The starting fare is US dollars 175/-(Rs 8000/-)or Kuwait
dinar 50 including taxes(one-way). Which is about half the
fare charged by Kuwait airways. The fare increases for the
next block of 10/20 seats. Hence book early for lower fares
Booking (rates displayed)can be done through internet (you
save KD 5/-) http://book.jazeeraairways.com
Being a no-frills airline, free food is not served.
A sandwich costs KD1 and fruit juice 250 fils, Tea/Coffee
500 fils and mineral water is free which is a little more
than double the cost on land in Kuwait.
20 kg of checked in baggage and 6 kg of hand baggage is
allowed free.
The in flight attendants were mostly Goan girls and they
even conversed/joked with the passengers, some even in
Konkanni !!, unlike Kuwait airways.
Currently the flights to Mumbai are full while the ones to
Kuwait are half full which implied that while returning to
Kuwait some passengers carried (and were allowed) much much
more than the excess 6 kg hand baggage in the aircraft.
Also their hand baggage was not weighed, both ways.
Their arrival and departure were about 30 minutes earlier
then scheduled.
