Navigating Departure from Iran During the Israel-Iran Conflict: A Guide for Germans
Various routes to depart from Iran exist:
In the midst of the escalating conflict between Israel and Iran, finding a way out of Iran might seem like a daunting task for many Germans. But fear not, as we've got you covered with this comprehensive guide.
Special Flights via Amman: A Lifeline for Leaving Israel
The foreign office in Berlin is working tirelessly to help Germans leave Israel via Jordan, using special flights from Amman. The borders are open, ensuring a smooth transit experience, and regular commercial flights are also available from Amman. A seat on the special flight, priced around 300 euros, is a beacon of hope for those seeking to leave Israel due to security concerns [source].
Overland Expedition as the Preferred Route for Leaving Iran
Things are more challenging for Germans trapped in Iran, as direct flights may not be immediately possible. Nevertheless, overland travel to neighboring countries with open borders like Armenia, Turkey, or even Azerbaijan (though borders might be closed for regular traffic) can provide a viable option [source]. Germany is advising citizens in Iran to explore these routes and register on the crisis prevention list for assistance [source].
No Direct Evacuation Flights from Iran
Germany has yet to establish direct evacuation flights from Iran due to the closure of airspace and ongoing security concerns. Instead, citizens are advised to make their way to safer third countries like Jordan, from where they can take charter flights back to Germany [source].
A Coordinated Effort: Germany's Support for Citizens
Germany, along with other European countries, is actively supporting its citizens in relocating to safer areas and facilitating their onward travel, as demonstrated by the recent safe arrival of Germans evacuated from Israel in Frankfurt [source].
Stay Updated and Prepared
As the situation continues to evolve, it's essential to stay informed and prepared. Register on the crisis prevention list to receive assistance during evacuation efforts, and heed the advice of the foreign office to leave the country as soon as possible when the opportunity arises.
Remember, safety should always be your top priority. Keep calm, stay informed, and trust the authorities to guide you through this challenging time.
