After several years of suspension, and under the directive of President Ilham Aliyev, Azerbaijan Airlines has conducted its first direct flight on the Baku-Tabriz-Baku route. These flights will initially operate twice a week, Alizadeh wrote on his X account.
Azerbaijan Airlines had previously stated that regular flights between Baku and Tehran would recommence on September 1, 2025.
The flights on the Baku-Tehran route and vice versa will operate four times a week - on Saturdays, Mondays, Thursdays, and Fridays, the statement reads.
As part of expanding its network, the airline will also launch direct flights on the new Baku-Tabriz route starting on September 3, 2025, it added.
Flights on the Baku-Tabriz route and vice versa will be available twice a week, on Sundays and Wednesdays, it noted.
Tickets for all routes can be purchased via the airline's official website, mobile application, ticket offices, and authorized representatives.
