How to find the best Iran Air fares

Booking out of IKA is usually the strongest fare play: Iran Air concentrates 22 of its routess from Tehran, and higher route density at a hub means more head-to-head competition — both from other Iran Air departures and from rival carriers serving overlapping city pairs. Use the Kayak search box above with origin set to IKA to see the airline's full departure board at a glance.

Data sources & methodology

All route, hub, destination and country figures are computed directly from the OpenFlights public-domain routes dataset(openflights.org/data.php)— specifically the directCarriers JSON field on every FlightRoute row, where each airline code (e.g. IR) is parsed from the OpenFlightsroutes.dat airline identifier column. Carrier names come from the companion OpenFlights airlines.dat dataset. No prices or fare estimates appear on this page — those values fluctuate continuously across 100+ booking sites and are fetched live via Kayak at search time.
