Asia > Middle East > Iran > Central Iran > Tehran (province) > Tehran > Imam Khomeini International Airport

Imam Khomeini airport (IKA IATA) is in Tehran, Iran.

Understand

The airport is operated by the Iran Airports Company and is the primary operating base for Iran Air and Mahan Air, as well as an international hub for many smaller Iranian airlines.

Flights

As of June 2022, IKIA has three terminals.

Terminal 1

Terminal 1, IKIA's first active terminal, has a total annual handling capacity of 6.5 million passengers. In 2017, it handled nearly 9 million passengers.

Terminal 2

Salaam Terminal, IKIA Second Active Terminal, has a capacity of 5 million passengers per year. While built to be a dedicated pilgrimage terminal, according to Iran's former Minister of Roads and Urban Development Abbas Akhoundi, it will be open to all varieties of flights.

Terminal 3

IKIA's third terminal, called the Iranshahr Terminal, is under development by the Dutch engineering firm Netherlands Airport Consultants (NACO). However, in 2017, NACO withdrew from the contract after its failure to obtain financing due in part to US sanctions against Iran. The Iranshahr Terminal is planned to have a capacity of 20 million passengers per year, which would bring the airport's total passenger capacity to 30 million passengers per year.
