Guide prices are one-way estimates incl. positioning; taxes/handling extra. Round-trip and one-way both available.
Several variables shape what you pay for a Tehran–Kabul charter: the distance and prevailing winds on the day, fuel costs across the regions you cross, handling and landing fees at both airports, and the specific aircraft confirmed against live availability. International routing adds overflight permits and customs clearance to the final figure.
Both cities are served by several airports, giving flexibility on slots and routing:
Tehran, Iran: Imam Khomeini International Airport, Mehrabad International Airport and Payam International Airport.
Kabul, Afghanistan: Kabul International Airport and Bagram Airfield.
| Imam Khomeini International Airport | Kabul International Airport | |
|---|---|---|
| Code | OIIE / IKA | OAKB / KBL |
| Longest hard runway | 13,772 ft | 11,483 ft |
| Surface | Asphalt | Asphalt |
| Field elevation | 3,305 ft | 5,877 ft |
Kabul International Airport is at 5,877 ft, high enough to reduce performance on a warm day; your operator may limit payload on arrival.
All 16 aircraft we quote for Tehran to Kabul can use both airfields and fly the route non-stop. Imam Khomeini International Airport has 13,772 ft and Kabul International Airport 11,483 ft, both comfortably beyond the 6,000 ft the largest types here need, so field length is not what decides the aircraft on this route — cabin size and range are. At 1,646 km it is close to the limit for the shortest-legged aircraft here, the Embraer Phenom 100EV at 2,180 km.
Alternates within range: Mehrabad International Airport (13,258 ft, 34 km) · Payam International Airport (12,005 ft, 50 km) · Shahid Aryafar Airport (3,106 ft, 34 km) · Naja Airport (3,630 ft, 47 km) · Bagram Airfield (11,820 ft, 43 km) · UNOCA Heliport · Camp Warehouse Heliport · Camp Qargha South Heliport
Flexibility at both ends: we pick the most convenient airfield, not the busiest one.
