Aviation Iran reports Iran Air flights originating out of Paris Orly have been able to take on-board fuel at the airport as of January 19.
Previously, when serving London Heathrow, Paris, Frankfurt Int’l, Cologne/Bonn, Amsterdam, Hamburg Fuhlsbuttel, Gothenburg Landvetter and Stockholm Arlanda, Iran Air was forced to load enough fuel to cover the outbound as well as part of the inbound sector of its flights.
Technical stops were often made in eastern European airports such as Belgrade, Budapest and Prague to top up when necessary resulting in longer flights, extra cost and inconveniences to passengers, Financial Tribune said.
