    Avoid traveling during holidays. Be at airport before 3 hours! Make sure your luggages with you, your passport & boarding passes. Don't rush, go early at your gate, have a safe trip! في أمان الله

    Nice airport with a good duty free market. I also like the food court where you find a lot of good choices.

    In summer times (6-7-8-9) it's recommended to come earlier than usual to finish your boarding without any hassle

    There are 2 viva shops there.. if the one on ground floor is packed then take the escalator up and you'll find a less crowded one there👍🏼

    The coffee shop on the gate area is a little bit hidden, from the gate you have to turn left all the way in front of the smoking area. The coffee shop upstairs doesn't open until 8AM

    When transit here, check your schedule at the Transit Desk to confirm your next flight & you might get a 'Refreshment' coupon.

    You can try standing near the entrance of the Pearl Lounge to get a WiFi signal. The password today (July 29, 2013) is naskems002. Don't know how often they change it.

    small car park considering the number of flights from this terminal. Parking is expensive. 5kd every 12 hours after 12 hours. Best to get a friend to pick you up also as taxi are a bit sparse

    If you are flying Emirates and only have carry-on luggage, you can get your boarding pass from the counter just outside the security queue.

    The Terminal where everyone meets (departure and arrival). Make sure to collect your original Visa copy if you are entering Kuwait with a visit Visa from the counter at the clearance hall.

    If you have a Diners Club card or Platinum/Black Amex- DON'T go through security! There is a business lounge you can use and board from here instead. Easy!

    Parking is forever a problem here. The long term lot is always full; so is the valet. Get a ride to your flight. If you must park, you can do so at the cargo terminal; its uncovered but free.

    If you have plans to park your car at the long term parking during traveling peak season (summer and public holidays) make sure you check the day before your travel.

    Long term parking is available at KWI airport. It will be KD 1 per 12 hour or less. During traveling peak season (Summer time & Public holidays) the parking gets full and they won't allow you to park.

    Once you check in.. DO NOT! I repeat DO NOT go straight through passport control and think there will a "duty free" where you can spend an hour or two! There is NOT! Stick around till 40 mins b4 flgt

    Unfortunately, luggage claims & belt are not efficient, dramatic delays! You might “WAIT HERE PLEASE” for an hour or so if you arrive during rush period. حزام الحقائب و توصيلها جداً سيء هنا، غير فعال

    Pay for short-term parking using the machine inside the airport and you can use the pre-paid exit to avoid queues when leaving.
