 About Iran Air
"Iranian
Airways" was first established in May 1944 and commenced its first
passenger flight right after the World War II from Tehran to holy city
of Mashhad. Within a
period of 17 years (1945-1962) this airline developed into a major domestic
Route with a few international flights per week. In 1954 another private
airline as "Pars Airways" was established. Initially "Pars
Airways" only undertook freight services to Europe.
The geographical situation of Iran, expanding its spacious levels, relative
remoteness of crowded areas from each other, lack of means of
transportations either railways or roads, the need to initiate safe and
fast connections to survey and governmental organizations, and the last but
not the least, lack of an ordered equipment with high capacity to revive
mutual aviation rights with other countries and also securing more welfare
and comfort for Iranians, provided the conditions for the board of
ministers to ratify a proposal suggested by road minister to establish a
national Airline corporate on February 10th, 1961. Following this decision,
on February 24th, 1961 both "Iranian Airways" and "Pars
Airways" merged to form a new airline as" IranAir" with the
acronyms and the symbol of "HOMA" bird and this new airline
commenced its activities in April 1962.
Covering the domestic aviation transportation needs accompanied by
observing the safety principles and forming transportation services with
neighboring and far-fetched countries, and also considering simultaneous
communal contracts on commercial grounds and interests of the country were
among the reasons to establish IranAir.
