Global flights resume from Tehran's Imam Khomeini Airport
Days after United States Head Donald Trump extended a temporary calm , global flights resumed from Tehran’s Imam Khomeini Global Airport on Saturday, Iranian press stated. The first passengers had departed for Medina, in Saudi Arabia, Muscat and Istanbul, with operations expected to accelerate in the coming days.

“Well, it’s a good feeling. When flights resume, commerce is done, and individuals can do their employment. It’s a good feeling,” stated one passenger at the airport, where passengers were queuing at check-in desks.
Iranian airspace has been largely closed since the start of the conflict.
Tens of thousands of flights have been cancelled, rerouted and rescheduled worldwide, shutting much of the Middle East’s airspace because of missile and drone threats.
Iran's national carrier, Iran Air, already resumed its domestic flights on April 22, after a suspension lasting around 50 days, the semi-official Tasnim news bureau documented.
