Kuwait Airways also went into alliances with several airlines to keep up with demand and to continue its operations during the 1990 War.

Kuwait Airways also operate aircraft for official State business.

Out of 10 planes,4 were completely destroyed and 6 were returned to Kuwait Airways by the Iranians in 1992.
