Planes

Fokker 100, Fokker 50, Boeing 737-300; 8 to 9 aircraft in 2026. Average age not published; all types are 25 to 35 years old.

Scores

On time
39% of flights late in the Khordad 1401 report, slightly above the national average.
Aircraft and comfort
Fokker 100s, Fokker 50 turboprops and a couple of 737-300s (8 to 9 aircraft); it is one of the last Fokker 50 operators anywhere. Several Fokker 50s were destroyed in the 2026 strikes.
Baggage allowance
20 kg checked plus a 5 kg cabin bag; excess 1% of the fare per kilo.
Service and food
Small regional jets and turboprops serving the oil-industry south from Ahvaz; basic snack. No independent rating.
Changes and refunds
Alibaba publishes Karun's table: 30% standard penalty, 50% from noon the day before until two hours before departure, 65% inside two hours. Charter seats only through the seller.

What is good

  • Only airline serving Kharg, Lavan, Sirri and the oil islands
  • Published penalty table

What is not

  • 65% penalty inside two hours
  • Old Fokkers with few spares

Tips

  • Decide before noon the day before; the penalty jumps from 30% to 50% after that

Plan the trip

How we score: Each criterion gets 1 to 5 from published figures, official pages and recent traveller reports; the note under each score says what it rests on. Nothing here is paid for and nothing comes from the airlines or airports themselves.
