• Mahan Air continues to build up its presence in Iraq, as it launched flights to its third destination in the country on 2 December. The airline, which already serves Bagdad and Erbil each with thrice-weekly flights from Tehran (IKA), now also flies with the same frequency from the Iranian capital to Najaf (NJF). Flights on the 700-kilometre route are offered with A310s in competition to Iran Air’s daily service.
