‘Open travel for vaccinated’ – ARAB TIMES – KUWAIT NEWS – Arab Times Kuwait English Daily

‘Tremendous losses’

KUWAIT CITY, May 17: Chairman of the Board of Directors of Kuwait Travel and Tourism Agencies Association (KTTAA) Muhammad Al-Mutairi has urged the government to take effective and realistic measures, such as lifting restrictions on about two million vaccinated citizens and expatriates, reports Al-Rai daily.

He considers the decision to prevent even those who are fully vaccinated from traveling a missed opportunity, indicating the airport has been unable to make travel arrangements for about 1.2 million passengers every month and this caused enormous losses for the tourism, travel and aviation sectors.
