flydubai becomes first international carrier to resume Kabul flights

Low-cost carrier flydubai announced flights to Kabul on Thursday, becoming the first international airline to resume services since US forces' chaotic withdrawal in 2021.

Twice-daily flights will begin on November 15, the Dubai-based airline said. Taliban authorities swiftly returned to power after the hasty US evacuation.

"flydubai... announced today the resumption of flights to Kabul International Airport," said a statement on the carrier's website.

Currently, Afghanistan's Kam Air and Ariana Afghan Airlines operate limited services from Kabul to destinations including Dubai, Moscow, Islamabad and Istanbul.

Last year, a United Arab Emirates company, GAAC, signed a contract to manage Afghanistan's air traffic, an agreement that was expected to bring back international airlines.

GAAC, based in the UAE capital Abu Dhabi, also has contracts to provide ground handling services and security screening at Afghanistan's three airports.

flydubai will be the first international carrier to operate Kabul flights in two years, the Afghan consulate in Dubai said on its page.

Its return "will be the beginning of the resumption of flights for other international airlines", the consulate added.

Iran, Afghanistan sign 5 agreements on economic cooperation

Iran and Afghanistan have signed five agreements on expanding bilateral economic cooperation, Iran's official news agency IRNA reported on Friday.

The agreements covered cooperation in the sectors of transportation, civil aviation, mining, free trade zones, and cooperation with Iran's Esfahan Steel Company.

In an address to the meeting, the special representative of Iran to Afghanistan Hassan Kazemi-Qomi said expanding bilateral economic cooperation would contribute to
Afghanistan's stability and security and help reduce the country's problems.

Afghan Acting Minister for Commerce and Industry Nooruddin Azizi said the government of Afghanistan sought to increase annual trade with Iran to 10 billion U.S. dollars, adding that the country was no longer in need of Europe as the neighboring Iran had advanced technological capabilities.
