Escape routes

Hi there.

Does anyone have any valid info for escape routes for 320/330/350 in Iranian airspace and for routes to and from China from Europe?

Any escape routes info for Europe is also highly appreciated.

Thanks!!

Sounds like a job for your airline’s planning / performance department.

I think that these sorts of data could well be considered "intellectual property" of the airline paying performance engineers to produce same.
My old mob spent lots of time and money devising 1EO and depress escape routes for these areas. Some are quite complex. So glad I never needed to use them!!

Negative. Absolutely nobody has that information.

What is an escape route in this context? Assuming flight planning data from a variety of points in a hostile area of operations to the closest safe airspace/airport/etc.

Or is it someone stealing said airplane and wanting to flee to freedom?

I'm assuming for depressurisation... And yes, that's usually the flight planning/performance department's job. Alps are easy as pie though, turn 90 degrees to the spine of the range, and you're out within 10 minutes max.

Agree about the Alps but my company has escape routes for the mountains in Northern Turkey.

I’m no longer current but we used to have routing procedures for the Turkey/Iraq/Iran area and we also did have some fairly interesting escape routes (engine failure and/or for depress) for flights heading Europe-Beijing/HKG etc over north west China via overhead Urumqi.

As far as the OPs request goes problem is in addition to the proprietary nature of the documents there’s the problem that they were type/company specific due to, for example, the amount of oxygen (both pax and crew) we carried, so no guarantee they’d be valid on any of the types they mention.
