Direct flights now available between Tehran and Kandahar

Aseman Airlines

Yesterday, the Iranian Aseman airlines flew for the first time a direct flight from the Iranian capital of Tehran to Afghanistan’s second largest city, Kandahar. Flights by both Afghan and Iranian airlines happen at least twice a week from Tehran to Afghanistan’s capital of Kabul, however this was the first time an Afghan or Iranian airline directly flew from Tehran to Kandahar. Now, scheduled flights from Tehran to Kandahar and back will be available on a weekly basis. Afghans living in Kandahar and neighboring cities can more easily their export their goods to Iran, and import other goods fromВ  Iran. These types of flights are expected to dramatically improve trade between the two countries.
