The September 2011 report showed that Jazeera Airways grabbed a leading market share to Alexandria, Assiut, Damascus, Luxor, Sharm El Sheikh and Sohag, putting it ahead of all other carriers operating the routes. The airline was also the leading Kuwaiti operator to the majority of its destinations, including high-demand routes such as Beirut, Amman, Bahrain and Dubai.
