Kuwait International does not fare well when compared to other leading Middle Eastern airports such as  Dubai or Bahrain. It is notorious for long queues.

Flooded with natural light that streams through towering glazed windows, the interior of the multi-level Commercial Center is a pleasure to explore. When viewed from the air, its rooftop resembles the vapor trails of jets blasting away from the main terminal building.
