Air France to end flights to Tehran next month

Air France will end flights to Tehran on September 18, the airline says Thursday, citing poor commercial prospects linked to US sanctions against Iran.

The announcement from Air France — which had run connections to Tehran via its low-cost operator Joon — came shortly after British Airways said it was suspending flights to the Iranian capital.
