IranAir Expands Service Between Tehran and London

Iran Air will add a Monday flight to its existing Tuesday, Thursday, and Sunday service between Tehran and London starting July 31. The new flight will be operated by an Airbus A330-243 aircraft with 206 economy seats and 32 business seats.

Iran Air faces more difficulties ahead due to sanctions placed on jet fuel and other aviation items due to Iran's foreign policy. However, the airline is still expanding its network and this new flight is a sign of its commitment to serving its customers.

Other airlines that use Imam Khomeini International Airport, Tehran's primary airport, include Austrian Airlines, Lufthansa, Emirates, and Turkish Airlines. The airport is well served by a 24-hour metro subway, taxis, and a highway.

• The new Monday flight will depart Tehran at 13:20 local time and arrive in London at 17:10 local time. The return flight will depart London at 19:00 and arrive in Tehran at 03:25 the next morning.
• The A330-243 aircraft has a range of 13,450 km or 7,250 NM.
• Imam Khomeini International Airport has two parallel runways that are over 13,000 feet or 4,000 meters long.
