4-day Kuwait Aviation Show to begin on 17 Jan 2018

2017 hasn’t officially come to an end yet, but there’s already much anticipation for 2018 as it will be the banner year for the country’s biggest aviation show with the Kuwait Aviation Show to be held at the Kuwait International Airport from Jan 17 – 20, 2018.

The event acknowledges the increasing importance of the Arabian Gulf over the last two decades, especially since the GCC aviation industry has had one of the strongest performances among regional markets worldwide. Kuwait was chosen to play host to the event because its aviation market is projected to experience massive growth in the next 6 years that will see a number of airport construction projects as well as an expansion of the country’s air carrier market.

The aircraft display event will showcase over 30 aircraft units, both for commercial and military use from leading aircraft manufacturers in the world.

What to Look Forward to at the Kuwait Aviation Show 2018

Notable key projects include the construction and operation of three new airport terminals together with one of the country’s largest freight terminals among other things.

The Kuwait Aviation Show is expected to draw in massive local and international support due to the great interest the Kuwait aviation market has received in terms of private aircraft acquisitions and airplane leasing as well as the vast private and governmental opportunities presented by the country’s aviation market.
