Iran dismisses sanctions on Mahan Air

TEHRAN -The Managing Director of Iranian Mahan Airline Hamid Arabnejad rejected reports on the airlines' flight ban to Europe and Saudi Arabia, saying the flights are underway.

Arabnejad said, "Discussions on sanction against Iran’s Mahan Airline are true about International Air Transport Association (IATA) and Clearing House System imposed and the issue has nothing to do with the flights.”

He added, “No change has occurred in Mahan Airline’s system and flights are underway as they used to be."

Foreign sources have said that the US has imposed sanctions on Iranian Mahan Airline’s flights through which many flights to Saudi Arabia transferring pilgrims faced problems.

Mahan is a private airline based in the Mahan Air Tower in Tehran, Iran. It operates scheduled domestic services and international flights to the Far East, Middle East, Central Asia, and Europe.
