Iraq's national carrier Iraqi Airways resumed international flights today after a gap of fourteen years.Out of fleet of sixteen airplanes only one is operable.
Iraqi Airways says its offices have already sold dozens of tickets, but at prices the majority cannot afford. A return ticket to Damascus would cost $600, and a return to Amman $750. The same trip by road costs about $40.
All the return flights to Iraq will be free.
