  • Iran Air Tours to acquire 4 Airbus aircraft...

    Each plane will have a capacity of 200 seats, he added. The president of Civil Aviation Organization of Iran said in April that "We plan to increase the number of aircraft and replace the older planes with new ones". "We also plan to raise the lifespan of the fleets by 25 percent," Reza Nakhjavani told the Mehr News Agency.

    Well, I guess that they are going to be A320s, which would be nice to see. I wish them the best of luck, but with present sanctions (and likely stronger ones to come as their nuclear program continues), and the rapidly deteriorating Iranian currency and economy, can they really afford it?
    Whatever is necessary, is never unwise.

    There are other sources that claim that Iran Air Tour plan to get Airbus A310 and A320s. Maybe they mean A310s with 200 seats because the A320 is not able to take more than 180 seats.

    What is the source of these aircraft? During the last years the airline managed to lease western aircraft which are operated on behalf of Iran Air Tour.

      Always nice to see where they get their planes from. Probably through Turkey or Armenia.....
