It was January 1st
1946 in Zahedan, where Mohajeri brothers (Mohammad and
Abolghasem) were appointed as INDIAN RAILWAYS ticket sales agent.
This was the emergence of Mohajeri Agency.
Since many years before Zahedan was linked to Quetta in India by Indian Railways
via Mirjaveh in Iran and Nokkandi in India.
In 1944, few Iranian intelligent and educated merchants, had in mind to establish an
airlines and Mohajeri & Co.
consequently IRAN AIRWAY Co.,(IRANAIR) was registered in Tehran, so Iran
literary got an Airline Company at that time.
IRAN AIR, by purchasing eight DC3 aircraft, remaining from World War II, in 1946,
officially started their domestic operation and Mohajeri Co., was appointed their Sales
Agent in Zahedan.
This was the time that, Mohajeri & Co., became officially a Travel Agent.
During the Second World War, while Iran was under foreign occupation, Russian
Airlines AEROFLOT was operating daily domestic services between Tehran-
Mashhad v.v., Tehran-Tabriz v.v. and twice weekly flights between Tehran-Moscow
via Baku v.v.
In 1947, Mohajeri &Co., chartered two DC3 flights from IRAN AIR in order to
transport Indian residence in Zahedan to Delhi, which this operation became a basis of
regular weekly air services between Tehran, Isfahan, Yazd, Kerman, Zahedan,
Karachi and Bombay v.v.
In 1947, IRAN AIR appointed Mohajeri & Co., as The Sales Agent for Abadan.
In mid 1948 BRAATHENS S.A.F.E. of Norway appointed Mohajeri & Co. as the
General Sales Agent for Khouzistan, and then re-routed its Far East flight instead of
Basra to Abadan. This twice weekly flight was operated by DC4 aircraft from,
Stavanger in Norway via Hamburg, Geneva, Rome, Athens, Cairo, Abadan, Karachi,
Calcutta, Bangkok, and Hong Kong, v.v.
Also, in 1948 Mohajeri & Co. chartered a 21-seater DC3 aircraft from IRAN AIR to
transport Abadan pilgrims to Mecca and back, which resulted that in 1949 all Iran
pilgrims were transported by air only. Yet continues
In 1953 BRATHENS S.A.F.E seized their international operation to Far East and
SCANDINAVIAN AIRLINES SYSTEM (SAS) took over the route and operated 4
weekly round trip flights to Tokyo via Abadan v.v. and Mohajeri & Co. was

To promote incoming tourists to Iran and give better services to Iranian tourists
abroad, from 1968 to 1978, we opened our branch offices in Los Angeles, Kabul,
Copenhagen, Hamburg, London, Rome, New York, San Francisco and Hong Kong
respectively.
During the years of 1973/1978, each summer we organized 4 groups of 35 students,
ageing 9 to 18, for 45 days to UK in order to learn and practice their English
language.
Our several years of hard activities in the field of tourism, resulted in absorbing
around 30,000 foreign tourists into Iran and dispatching 603 groups, amounting to
