Hi all,
This is my return segment from Tehran to Toronto. I flew from Tehran with Iran Air A300 from THR airport at around 5:30 AM.
I did not take many pix, therefore I ma labeling this FR from AMS to YYZ.
At Tehran's Mehrabad International- A very nice and spacious terminal but since I was very sleepy I could not take pix of the terminal

As I was very sleepy I slept and missed the second meal, when I woke up we were close to AMS :)

Conclusion

Great flight by Iran Air, but since I was very sleepy I was asleep most of the flight. Great flight with KLM, back then they had not still installed IFEs in the 747, but the crew were very nice as always.

  • Thank you for sharing this throwback report.

    I love the plane spotting at AMS. It's good see all the old-school liveries, brings back memories seeing those silver NWs. The PrivatAir B737 is also a nice catch.

    The overhead TVs, however, do not bring back good memories.

    Breakfast offering on IranAir looks good.

  • Thanks for the FR

    I also like spotting @ AMS. It's kind of inexcusible that KL (even while NW was still around) hadn't installed PTVs. Not to be outdone by IR, who still hasn't done it, not even overhead screens.
