Dodging sanctions that prevent Iran Air flights from refueling at London’s Heathrow airport, the airliner has struck a deal with the small and privately owned Manston, Kent airport – a former RAF base in the World War II, to refuel its passenger flights for the journey home.
The Iran Air flights are allowed to land at major European airports like Heathrow. But those airports, with links to the US market, refuse to sell jet fuel to Iranian airliners on the US sanctions list.

Thank you for pointing out the Iran air refueling stunt at Kent.I will soon pressure my local MP to put a stop to it and then we shall see where this dastardly regime will get its fuel from.
Best of regards.
It appears who ever's running this blog revels in the fact that innocent Iranians travelling for business or meeting their families abroad suffer for some sanctions imposed on Iran airline based on lies and fabrications.
ReplyDeleteWhat exactly is this report supposed to achieve? That Iran Air cares about lives of their passengers and therefore need to refuel their planes is a bad thing?? Would you rather they run out of fuel in the air and fall from the skies so you can turn round and post here about how bad sanction is?
Hypocrite!!!
Pretty soon this airplane and others like it will be grounded in England.
ReplyDeleteAnd not only that but Visas will not be issued so easily to some certain types of Iranians of dubious character.
