Iran Restarts Scheduled Domestic Flights From Bandar Abbas

Authorities describe the move as a cautious step toward restoring civilian transport during an ongoing security crisis.

Overview

  • State media and provincial airport officials confirmed on Saturday that scheduled services have resumed between Bandar Abbas and Tehran, Mashhad and Isfahan.
  • Kazem Tavassoli, director general of airports in Hormozgan province, said the airport ran only limited flights in the days before the broader resumption.
  • Before the conflict with the United States began in February, Bandar Abbas typically handled about 35 to 40 flights a day, a level still distant from current operations.
  • Officials warned that schedules remain fragile and passengers should check with airlines and the airport because services can be changed at short notice for security reasons.
  • Bandar Abbas is a strategic southern port and restoring these routes will ease travel for residents and commerce, but authorities say the resumption does not mean nationwide aviation has returned to normal.
