                <![CDATA[Yeah, the commuter service out of BIAP is pretty dicey. There's a startup on the commercial side that flies into Kuwait City, but the only regular civil carriers run to Syria and Jordan.<br />
<br />
You'd think the Powers That Be would run additional flights whenever changeouts are scheduled -- it ain't like it's a big secret. BTW, a bunch of your buds are still stuck up here...<br />]]>
