I hope the resumption of Iraq/Iran flights means the reopening of Kuala Lumpur and possibly Jakarta.

''All these flights will be operated by a combination of Embraer and Airbus fleet, the airline said its statement.-TradeArabia News Service''

I thought the Embraers were leaving.

In any case this is good news. Does this also mean that the pilot selection process will resume?

You can expect the usual NTC. 'Due to circumstances beyond our control and inorder to maintain our summer / winter schedule, it will be necessary to cancel upcoming leave.'
