It is called the National kuwaiti airways and there are sayings that it will replace Kuwait airways that is fully "governmental"....this is why Kuwait airways is being neglected by it's officials and thank GOD that some of them are now consigned to court for misappropriating with the KAC budget and embezzlement of the KAC budget.....and recently the Kuwait airways chairman have been changed with another one "I don't know who he is"......any way, I still wonder what will happen to Kuwait airways officially??!!!??!!! :}

I believe the original question is about United Aviation(dba, Gulf Air Services )KIPCO,

They operate two E-135 Legacy's out of OKBK and do VIP air charter. The company has recently been sold to Tatweer Infrustructure and is now under new management.

I think basic FO pay is around 1200-1500KD depending on your experience level or flight hours. A per diem of 1KD per hour on a overnight trip and 4KD productivity pay per flight block hour. They also speak of a 3 month on 1 month off roster, but has yet to be realized due to staffing levels.

I can think of very few good things to say about the company, as I had a very bad experince with them but that unfortunatly goes for everyone who has worked their.:oh:
