When alternates matter
IKA Tehran is the closest retained alternate at 303 km, time difference +0h.
When source checks matter
isfahan.airport.ir is listed as the official airport website in the airport facts snapshot; live schedules, gates, routes, terminals, and NOTAM-sensitive operations still need official airport or airline verification.
