Online Travel Agencies Blocked in Iran

After a media frenzy over online hospitality agencies overcharging customers, the judiciary has stepped in to block access to 180 online platforms nationwide which offer travel services or sell airplane tickets.
Deputy Attorney General Abdolsamad Khoramabadi took to his channel on the local messenger app Soroush to explain why the services have been blocked.
He said the websites got the ax after the judiciary received requests from the Roads Ministry and the Civil Aviation Organization of Iran (CAO) calling for the online travel agencies websites to be blocked.
