Flights Tehran to Shiraz

I will be arriving at Tehran Imam Khomeini International Airport at 11.30am Monday 8th May. I want to fly to Shiraz on the same day. I have found information difficult to get. I welcome suggestions as to which internal airline to use, which terminals they leave from and where to buy a ticket in advance.
Thanks very much.

I booked a flight for 7/4 with Iranair from Tehran (Mehrabad airport, NOT Imam Khomeiny!) to Shiraz at 6 a.m.
Iran air has recently got a new timetable. I was able to reach the Iran air office here in the Netherlands and was able to get an invoice sent to me, which was payable by Paypal/Ideal. A single ticket was 59 euro.
I know that there is also Mahan air which operates between these two cities, but I would opt for Iran air, as they have more flights. You could try to find the schedule which is published on Iranair.com and then click on the English language. It differs from week to week. Best thing I would think is to contact the Iran air office in Australia.

Thank-you very much margotv, this is proving difficult from Australia as there is no office here. You message has given me hope that it is possible!

If you cannot get things arranged in Australia, you could try at Mehrabad airport to get a ticket for that same day, but also through an agency in Iran (the agency I always use) Setareh e Mahan, they have a bank account abroad. If you would opt for the latter, let me know and I will give you their contactnumber (haven't got it with me at the moment).

Hi margotv, I would appreciate their number, as I would like to have the flight booked before I arrive.

I am the same and therefore bought a ticket (for my daughter) in advance as well. Less hassle.
The telephone number is +98 9122959185, but you could also send an email to Maryam@nahanstar.ir first. This couple used to work for a large travelagent and started for themselves a couple of years ago. My travelcompany always work with this agency for our group arrangements and we are very satisfied about their service. Hopefully they can provide you with this service. Good luck!

Thank-you margotv, this information is great. For some of the time I will also be travelling with my daughter.
Warm Regards

Hopefully you'll be able to get things organised! If you have any more questions, just let me know. I'm off again to Iran in a couple of days time, no holiday for me however!

You can easily find and book flights Tehran-Shiraz online using skyscanner and momondo.
Just checked momondo for May 8 - prices starting from €45 one way with Mahan Air.
You'll need a transfer from IKA to THR (Mehrabad airport) by taxi, about 770,000 rials.

I would also like to book a domestic flight . Edreams & Opodo are the same company which have bad reviews

Can anyone confirm apochi.com is reliable?

I've used both skyscanner and momondo several times. These are search engines that redirect you to actual booking/travel agents. Each time it worked excellent, never had any problems.
I have no experience though of the others that you mentioned.
