Iran Air Restores Quetta–Zahedan Flights After Temporary Suspension

Iran Air has resumed its Quetta to Zahedan flight service after a temporary suspension, re-establishing an air link that is expected to bolster trade, business cooperation and travel between Pakistan and Iran. On Tuesday, Iran Air flight IRA 0827 landed at Quetta International Airport from Zahedan, carrying over 80 passengers and returning to Iran with a similar load.

The reestablishment of the service was marked by a meeting between Haji Hakim Regi, President of the Zahedan Chamber of Commerce, and business leaders from Quetta. The discussions focused on expanding bilateral trade, forging commercial partnerships and enhancing cooperation between traders in the two nations. The restored service is anticipated to facilitate easier travel for businesspeople, traders, and other passengers, while simultaneously strengthening economic ties between Balochistan and Iran.

In December 2025, Balochistan Governor Jafar Khan Mandokhail inaugurated Iran Air's routes connecting Quetta with Zahedan and Mashhad. The service was temporarily halted due to the prevailing global circumstances.
