Global flights resume from Tehran's Imam Khomeini Airport

“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.
