About This Airport

Isfahan Shahid Beheshti International Airport (IATA: IFN, ICAO: OIFM) serves one of Iran's leading industrial regions — steel, petrochemicals and textiles — but has been operating under severe restrictions since the 2026 war. After strikes in March 2026 and repeated airspace closures, Isfahan was one of only eight airports still usable nationwide as of May 2026, with flights confined to the hours between sunrise and sunset and each rotation requiring separate approval from the Civil Aviation Organization of Iran. In June 2026 Iran partially reopened the eastern part of the Tehran flight information region to overflights while the western part stayed closed, and EASA's conflict-zone bulletin, as of July 2026, still advises operators against flying there at any altitude. In practice the airport averages about one departure a day. The field lies roughly 18.5 kilometres east of the city at some 1,540 metres above sea level, is the country's oldest airport and is jointly civil-military (Shahid Khatami Air Base), with separate domestic and international terminals and cargo handling for general freight and perishables; around 25,700 tonnes were handled in 2017, with no reliable figures published since. Road links reach the Mobarakeh steelworks and the manufacturing belt toward Kashan, while larger volumes route through Tehran Imam Khomeini (IKA). For European forwarders, Iranian traffic remains tightly constrained by sanctions and export-control rules.
