Kuwait International Airport security wait times

~20 min through security at KWI, from our airport directory. Early mornings and holiday weekends run longer.

Budget that on top of check-in or bag drop and the walk to your gate. For your exact leave-home time, enter your flight above: the plan uses the live wait when there is one.

T4: three hours, desks die at 60 minutes. Kuwait Airways T4 counters open 3 hours before departure and close 1 hour out; the gate closes 20 minutes out (KU117 to JFK 90 minutes).
