Scarcity of Airplane Tickets for Nowruz Travels
While airplane tickets for Nowruz travels have been made available for sale on airline websites, tickets cannot be found for certain dates. This has raised suspicions that airlines are deliberately withholding ticket sales to pressure the Civil Aviation Organization and the Market Regulation Headquarters. The head of the Civil Aviation Organization stated that the deliberate reduction of flights by airlines is not true, as it would be detrimental to them. However, due to the winter season, some domestic flights have been reduced. According to the Civil Aviation Organization, there are currently 171 active airplanes in the country, which could also be another reason for the shortage of airplanes for certain routes.
