Online check-in

Having completed a Kuwait Airways online booking it is possible to check in online from 24 hours prior to departure until as late as 1 or 3 hours before the flight departure time. The exact time depends on the departure location of the flight. In order to check-in, passengers must know their flight number and booking reference number.

Travellers who have checked in can print off their boarding pass, or if they require, amend their details and have their boarding pass sent to another email address. It is also possible to manage a booking by adding a specific service to the same passenger details if necessary.

In addition, a small laptop bag is also allowed to be taken on board no matter what ticket type was purchased. The maximum dimensions allowed are 56 x 46 x 25 cm. Additional items that exceed these limits will be weighed with the rest of the luggage and may incur an excess baggage charge.

While coming back from New York to Kuwait my seat was occupied by another woman passenger and I was asked to occupy another seat. This looked very bad to me as I specifically booked this seat keeping in view I am a diabetic. The seat allotted to me was not at all comfortable to me. The crew should be more sensible about this.

I haven’t flown with air Astana because they were 5h delayed so we would miss our correspondence to London.We also bid to be put in business class and they debit the amount and now I’ve contacted them to have that amount refunded and they are not replying to me.Overall very very unsatisfied with the airline
