Iran resumes international flights after a 20-day suspension

Iran's Imam Khomeini International Airport has welcomed its first foreign flight since the resumption of international air travel after a 20-day suspension, local media reported on Friday. According to Student News Network, Mehdi Ramezani, spokesperson for Iran's Civil Aviation Organisation, confirmed the Flydubai flight from the United Arab Emirates landed in Tehran on Wednesday, after extensive security and diplomatic coordination. The landing marks a "new phase of stability" for Iran's aviation sector, Ramezani said, after a recent 12-day conflict with Israel. He added that it represented a return to calm and intelligent management of the nation's airspace. International flights will gradually resume to specific destinations in coordination with authorities, to meet public needs and restore air links, he said. Iran and Israel agreed to a ceasefire last month after a bloody conflict that saw Israel striking hundreds of Iranian military infrastructure targets and nuclear-related sites, and Iran firing missiles at Israel in return. The truce was brokered by the US after it dropped 30,000 pound "bunker buster" bombs on three of Iran's key nuclear sites.

Iran airspace reopens: Travel options expand for Indian nationals, all you need to know

Iran has partially reopened its airspace following a 20-day closure during the Israel conflict, allowing some commercial flights to resume. Imam Khomeini and Mehrabad airports in Tehran are now operating limited international flights like the Flydubai service from UAE, though operations are restricted to daytime hours (5:00 am-6:00 pm local time). Eastern Iran's airspace operates 24/7, while airports in Isfahan and Tabriz remain closed pending repairs. Ferry services to neighboring countries and land border crossings to Armenia (Agarak) and Türkiye (Kapiköy/Esendere) are also functional, providing additional exit routes. Indian citizens wishing to leave Iran can now use commercial flights from reopened airports or cross land borders. The Indian Embassy specifically advises those in Tehran to "move outside the city using their own resources" to safer locations . Over 700 Indians have already relocated to cities like Qom, while 110 students crossed to Armenia via the Agarak border, which remains open. Those considering the Azerbaijan or Turkmenistan borders must first email the respective U.S. Embassies for special entry approvals. Commercial ferries offer another exit option, though services remain unpredictable. 'The Iranian airspace is gradually re-opening, and commercial flights to and from Iran are expected to progressively resume in the coming days. Similarly, commercial ferry services are also plying between Iranian ports and neighbouring countries,' the X account of Indian Embassy in Iran was quoted as writing. 'Indian citizens present in Iran, and wishing to leave, may do so through commercial flights/ferry services. All Indian nationals intending to travel or transit through Iran are advised to monitor the latest developments and follow the official advisories,' another X post by them read. All Indian nationals must immediately contact the Embassy of India in Tehran (+98 9010144557, +98 9128109115) to register their location if not already done. Dual Iranian-Indian citizens face unique risks: Iran doesn't recognize dual nationality and may confiscate U.S. passports. They must exit using Iranian passports with pre-obtained transit visas and expect questioning at checkpoints. The embassy advises carrying cash (USD) due to card payment failures, preparing for internet blackouts, and keeping phones charged during travel. Despite reopenings, flight disruptions continue due to infrastructure damage. Only aircraft flying above 25,000 feet are permitted in western airspace, restricting smaller planes. Indians should monitor embassy alerts and avoid non-essential travel to Iran. For urgent ground transport within Iran, ride-hailing apps like Snapp and Tap30 remain operational in major cities. Those exiting via Armenia should confirm border accessibility daily and carry printed copies of all identification documents to navigate checkpoints smoothly.

Iran reopens airspace; international flights resume after 20-day halt — 'new phase of stability'

Iran's Imam Khomeini International Airport has officially reopened its skies to international air travel following a 20-day suspension. The first foreign flight, a Flydubai flight from the United Arab Emirates, landed on Wednesday, only after extensive security and diplomatic coordination. Mehdi Ramezani, spokesperson for Iran's Civil Aviation Organisation, confirmed the successful landing to the Student News Network, highlighting the extensive security and diplomatic coordination that preceded the flight, ANI reported. The landing marks a 'new phase of stability' for Iran's aviation sector, Ramezani said in a statement, speaking of the disruptions caused by the recent tensions with Israel. Due to the Israel-Iran conflict, several airlines suspended or rerouted flights, and countries like Iraq, Jordan and Iran closed their airspace for safety concerns. The 20-day suspension of international flights was a direct consequence of a recent bloody 12-day conflict between Iran and Israel, the news agency reported. The hostilities began on June 13, 2025, when Israel launched 'Operation Rising Lion', targeting Iranian nuclear and various military facilities. After Israel targeted numerous Iranian military infrastructure and nuclear-related sites, Iran responded to the Israeli attacks by firing missiles at Israel. The conflict escalated further, with Iran also striking a US base in Qatar. The direct hostilities ended after Iran and Israel agreed to a ceasefire, brokered by the US last month. The US aided in de-escalation, including deploying 30,000-pound 'bunker-busting' bombs on three of Iran's key nuclear sites before the truce, the news agency reported.
