Kuwait Airways also operate aircraft for official State business. The fleet has a Kuwait Airways inspired livery with State of Kuwait titles, and is composed of one A300-600, one A310-300, one A319, one A320, two A340-500 and one 747-8BBJ.

The sole 747-400M, though part of the state fleet, is used by Kuwait Airways for their own services as well, therefore it carries full livery of the airline with an official state seal next to the title. This aircraft's upper deck is in VIP configuration. The main deck is configured for split business/economy seating. This aircraft is used on high density routes like India and Egypt when required. Use of the 747 is not restricted to premium routes to Europe or USA.

Famous quotes containing the word fleet:

    They ... fleet the time carelessly, as they did in the golden world.
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

    On the middle of that quiet floor
    sits a fleet of small black ships,
    square-rigged, sails furled, motionless,
    their spars like burned matchsticks.
    Elizabeth Bishop (1911–1979)

    A city on th’ inconstant billows dancing;
    For so appears this fleet majestical.
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
