Any idea on what the fleet will consist of? Older aircraft or new?

Right now its just one 737-200.

Iraqi Airways B737 landed in Cairo for refuelling on its way to Algiers... they had an Iraqi sports delegation in there for the Arab Games being held in Algeria

I saw the Iraqi 737-200 a couple of times in Amman now...

Without a doubt this must be one of the best looking -200s in service today. It looks great!

All the best to Iraq Airways and its crews.

:ok:
