Caveat: dry airline (no alcohol), they also are in no alliance it seems. Not the best seats either.
Kuwait also charges 3 KWD for a visa if you want to enter.
TWOV is possible BUT you MUST remain airside.
This is also true for US/UK/Canadian passports.
Passport required.
- Passport and/or passport replacing documents must be valid
on arrival.
Visa Issuance:
Visa required, except for Holders of (insert nationality)
passports can obtain a visa on arrival for a max. stay of 3
months. Fee: max. KWD 3.-. Extension is possible.
Warning:
- Visitors not holding return/onward tickets could be refused
entry.
I have no idea about how easy it would be explain a visit to Kuwait to a CBP officer though
which is why I want to use HK passport to visit that country (and because I can't be denied entry into HK no matter what)
