Official baggage policy
How to use this policy

Check cabin bag dimensions, weight and personal-item limits separately. A bag has to pass every published limit at once; being under the length and width limit does not help if the depth, weight, or fare-specific allowance is tighter.

Editorial signal only. Measure the packed bag and verify the operating carrier's rule.

Kuwait Airways liquids policy

For Kuwait origin/transit, published screening guidance limits containers to 100 ml in one transparent resealable 1 L bag (20×20 cm). Medicine/infant-food exceptions require security checks. Other airport rules may differ.

Family & Infants

Infant (under 2)

Published infant allowance is one checked bag up to 10 kg and 115 cm total dimensions; do not treat this as a 10 kg cabin allowance. Separate infant cabin entitlement and universal fare percentage are not established by these sources.

Stroller

Free carriage, handover and return conditions not established by the reviewed baggage sources; confirm with Kuwait Airways for the booking.

Car seat

Free carriage and cabin-seat approval not established by the reviewed sources; confirm the equipment and booking conditions.
