Kurdistan Region’s Al-Sulaymaniyah’s Jalal Talabani International Airport is to expand its weekly flight schedule to Turkiye beginning mid-week, airport officials said Monday.
The official name of the airport has recently changed. Formerly known as Al-Sulaymaniyah International Airport, it was renamed Jalal Talabani International Airport in late 2025.
Dana Mohammed, the airport’s media director, told Shafaq News that service between Al-Sulaymaniyah and Turkish destinations will increase from four to eight flights per week starting Tuesday, marking a gradual return to pre-ban operations.
The airport had been operating only three to four weekly flights since Ankara cancelled the restrictive NOTAM last October, which halted traffic for months.
