KUWAIT CITY, Nov 15: Kuwait Airways, the national airline of the State of Kuwait, is celebrating another successful win, in relation to its sponsorship of Kuwaiti national and seven-time world champion jet-skier, Abdullah Al Fadhel, as he recently notched up the 19th and 20th trophies of his professional career.

This was achieved with a first and second place finish, in two events, at the recent International Jet Sports Boating Association (IJSBA) World Finals, in Arizona, USA.

Ranked the number one jet-skier in the GCC region, and the only jet-skier in the world to have won world championship titles in both the “Drag Race” (4) and “Closed Course” (3) categories, Al Fadhel’s recent success saw him take first place in the “Pro-Spec Class” event and second place in the “Pro-Stock” race.

In recognition of his latest success, Al Fadhel was congratulated in person by Chairperson and CEO of Kuwait Airways, Rasha Al Roumi, and wishes for more successes in the future were conveyed.

Al Fadhel has been a professional jet-skier for over 10 years and has been sponsored by Kuwait Airways since 2010.
