Flights Resumed

Iraqi Airways has now resumed flights to Turkey since sanctions were imposed in 1991, following Saddam Hussein's invasion of Kuwait.

Iraqi Airways is planning to operate two commercial flights a week between Baghdad and Istanbul.

The airline resumed international flights in September 2004 with a Baghdad-Amman service, after being grounded for 14 years.

It currently flies to Amman in Jordan, Damascus as well as the Iraqi cities of Arbil and Basra.

Small steps maybe, but important ones nonetheless.
