Wego, the number 1 travel app and the largest online travel marketplace in the Middle East

and North Africa (MENA), has shared insight on how much Kuwaitis spent on travel during
summer holiday this year.
Wego data showed that Kuwaiti travelers spent a monthly average of US$571.48 (KWD

174.60) per user on flights and hotel stays from June to August 2024. Based on past
performance data on Wego, average travel spending per user in Kuwait typically peaks
during the summer months, especially in June.

Wego observed a notable increase in spending on both international flights and local
staycations in June, as many Kuwaitis began preparing for the school summer break and
the Eid Adha holiday.

The Eid Adha celebration played a significant role in this surge, as it prompted many
travelers to embark on trips, either returning to their hometowns or visiting family and
friends in other countries. This cultural and religious occasion is traditionally a time for

family gatherings, and travel demand typically peaks during this period, contributing to the
overall increase in travel-related spending.
