Kuwait International Airport stayed shuttered Saturday with no commercial passenger flights operating, as authorities continued to cite persistent security concerns and infrastructure repairs following months of regional instability that first forced the closure on Feb. 28.

The Directorate General of Civil Aviation (DGCA) and the Public Authority for Civil Aviation reiterated Friday that rumors of reopening were false, urging travelers and airlines to rely solely on official channels for updates. As of April 11, departure and arrival boards on the airport's official website showed no scheduled flights, reflecting the suspension that has now stretched beyond six weeks.
