Azerbaijani flag-carrier Azerbaijan Airlines announced the resumption of its Baku-Tehran route from 1st September.
The move is part of the airline’s strategy to strengthen its regional network and support the flow of tourism and trade between Azerbaijan and Iran.
In a statement, the airline declared: “The reintroduction of the Baku–Tehran schedule and the launch of the Baku–Tabriz route will provide travelers with more opportunities to discover the cultural and historical heritage of both countries.”
Route schedule
Azerbaijan Airlines’ Baku–Tehran flights take off four times a week on Mondays, Thursdays, Fridays, and Saturdays beginning 1st September.
Also, from 3rd September, the airline will introduce its new Baku–Tabriz service which flies on Wednesdays and Sundays.
The additional flights are expected to boost visitor numbers, strengthen cultural ties, and encourage cross-border trade.
Tehran, Iran’s capital, is a major gateway for business and cultural tourism, teeming with attractions that include the Golestan Palace, the National Museum and traditional bazaars.
The new Tabriz route, on the other hand, connects Azerbaijani travelers to the historic northwestern Iranian city whilst offering Iranians easier access to Baku’s mix of contemporary architecture and storied UNESCO-listed landmarks.
