When to fly
Iran is big enough that the question is not whether it is flyable but where. The desert plateau works either side of summer; the high Alborz works through it. This table is generated from every site guide on the site, so it stays in step with them.

Seasons are typical, not guaranteed. A hard winter or a late spring moves everything. Check with us or with the local club before you book flights.

This is a reference, and references get better by being corrected. If a season is wrong, a launch has moved, or a site is missing entirely, tell us — and if you can verify the technical data for a site, that is the most useful thing anyone can send.
