How to get in

Day passPaid CIP service booked in advance through Iranian agencies, for domestic and international arrivals and departures.

The honest take

The CIP (Commercially Important Persons) building at Ahvaz opened around Iranian year 1389 (2010/11) and sits to the left of the international flights hall. It serves arriving and departing passengers on domestic and international flights. Staff handle check-in and bags while you wait in a private lounge with refreshments and internet; international passengers use a dedicated screening and passport lane, and some agencies offer a car to the aircraft. It is booked through Iranian agencies before the flight. No lounge programme or status card gives access. Two agencies list opening hours as 06:00–23:00. Prices differ by agency and by domestic vs international, so HonestAirport leaves prices empty.
