History of Kish Airport
Perhaps it is natural for most of us that Kish Island is one of the most beautiful and main tourist destinations in Iran, but this island has not always been like this! In fact, until 1349, Kish Island was just an island in the south of the country and was not very important. Until 1349, a delegation of Iranian and American experts visited this island on the order of Mohammad Reza Shah Pahlavi and had discussions and discussions about expanding and turning it into a tourist destination.
The features of this island, which were still pristine and untouched until then, provided a great potential to turn it into a tourist destination. According to the same procedure, construction and beautification operations started in it until finally in 1356, Kish airport was officially and publicly opened. Also, in 1373, Kish airport was equipped with flight lights at night so that night flights of Kish could also start.
