US govt adds Iranian carriers, aircraft to sanctions
The US govt has added Airbus A340 VIP operator Dena Airways to a list of sanctioned Iranian carriers and targeted 31 aircraft used by 4 other Iranian airlines for new sanctions. Anyone who has a business relationship with any of the 5 carriers – including Mahan Air, Caspian Airlines, Meraj Air and Pouya Air – are at risk of violating the sanctions, the Treasury Department’s Office of Foreign Assets Control (OFAC) said May 24th. The sanctions cover a variety of services, including logistics, maintenance, catering, codeshare agreement, distribution, ticketing, marketing and freight forwarding, OFAC says. The actions come 2 weeks after the US govt decided to withdraw from a 3-year-old agreement with Iran and 5 other countries. <br/>
