M.A. Yusuff Ali
M.A. Yusuff Ali's Gulfstream G600 (T7-YMA) was tracked departing Kuwait International Airport at 16:46 UTC on June 30 and landing at Al Bateen Executive Airport in Abu Dhabi 1 hour 23 minutes later, covering 540 knots at 41,000 feet.
If aboard, M.A. Yusuff Ali would be returning to Abu Dhabi the same week LuLu Group is reportedly in advanced discussions to open additional hypermarkets in Kuwait, per a Kuwait Times report earlier this month. The short flight from Kuwait—a market where LuLu already operates several stores—suggests a working visit rather than a leisure trip.
The movement follows a pattern of frequent shuttling between Abu Dhabi and Kuwait: the same aircraft flew to Kuwait on June 21 and again on June 28, with a detour to Delhi in between. For a retail magnate whose company listed on the Abu Dhabi exchange in 2024, such trips often signal active deal-making or site inspections for new locations.
