Wataniya Airways, Kuwait's premium service airline, commenced operations in January 2009 with point to point connections across the Middle East. Flying to Beirut, Cairo, Dubai, Istanbul, Vienna and Sharm El Sheikh with more destinations to follow, Wataniya Airways offers advantageous services and schedules geared to the specific demands of discerning travellers flying to and from Kuwait.

Through partnership with Travelling Connect Wataniya Airways Diwan members can earn extra miles by using roaming services in the networks of 21 operators worldwide, including destinations where Wataniya Airways operates its flights to, such as Egypt and Turkey. Also all Wataniya Diwan members travelling to Kuwait can earn miles by making roaming calls on the Wataniya Kuwait network.

Lesley Watson, Loyalty Manager at Wataniya Airways commented: “We are extremely pleased to have this partnership with Travelling Connect. It provides an excellent service to our Wataniya Diwan members when they are travelling with us and offers many opportunities to earn additional miles.”

Wataniya Airways Diwan Programme pairs excellently with the Wataniya Telecom Roaming Advantages Program, whereby subscribers of Wataniya Telecom can earn miles for using roaming services worldwide. Wataniya Airways is the second airline in Kuwait and the sixth in the Middle East which participants of Wataniya Roaming Advantages can choose to earn extra miles in.

To benefit from the Wataniya Telecom Roaming Advantages Program, Wataniya Diwan members need to be/become subscribers of Wataniya Telecom and register once at www.wataniyaroamingadvantages.com. After registration all they have to do is roam abroad – they will earn 2 miles for each Kuwait Dinar spent on voice, sms and data services.
