kuwait airways are the worst airline on the planet - old aircraft, poorly maintained, no investment in the seats or entertainment system (assuming nothings changed since i flew with them 2 years ago) - however, take a look at crystal travel - you can get a flight with royal brunei (who are a cracking good airline) for £511 in march - the 30 hour trip, or £526 for the 20 hour version

i flew with them once and can't recall if they are dry, but the owners being muslim, i expect they are.

can't recommend crystal travel highly enough - honest easy to deal with and very cheap
