The head of the board of directors of the Iranian Air Travel and Tourism Offices told reporters on Sunday that a director general in Egypt's Ministry of Tourism and Antiquities will pay a visit to Iran at the head of a delegation in the coming days.
As long as Iran does not have a consulate in Egypt, the flights to that country will be made via Iraq, Rafiei said.
Commenting on the thaw in bilateral relations, he said that Tehran-Cairo symbolic flight is to be set up soon.
Iraq has brokered Iran-Egypt talks on rebuilding the tourism cooperation.
Recently, Iranian Foreign Minister Hossein Amir-Abdullahian said the Islamic Republic welcomes the normalization of relations with all Islamic countries, including Egypt and Morocco.
