The airport needs in total an overhaul. One can see the age and substandard in many spots. Sanitary rooms are a catastrophe. If there were bushes available that would be a much better solution. WiFi is as good as non-existent. Food offer is not numerous but at least the quality is good. One of best freshest burgers I had ever. Lounges are not existing. Immigration/customs was half-way efficient, but no online/digital facilities, self-printed boarding pass not accepted, thus queuing at the counter a must. Reminiscence from past centuries. All in all pretty poor airport needing urgent revamp to international standards.

The only possibility to get to IKA airport is by taxi, what a shame! They are overpriced for the local standards and not really willing to bargain (as usual for taxis elsewhere in the country). Several security checks (all quite leisure), and long long queues for everything. The overall process at the airport is fairly painless, but really, really slow. It is advisable to be there 3-4 hours before departure. WiFi not present, food services limited, retails only accepting rials (wtf is that?).

Obtaining a Visa on arrival proved a 1 hr 45 minute frustrating challenge with total confusion reigning on what seems to be a basically manual process, this despite the fact I was the first one at the counter and had excellent business sponsor. You MUST have Euros, and cannot change at the airport and no ATM, so be prepared,

Coming through the airport administration (including visa-on-arrival procedure) took me almost two hours. Everything worked correctly, there were no issues, it just was slow. Terminal facilities are existing, but rather basic. Be warned: there is not other option of getting to the city than taxi (fixed price of about $25-$35, depending on the type of car). This is quite a shame, at least a bus to the nearest metro station would really help a lot.

Although the airport is open for about 10 years only, it looks like 50 years old. Maintenance is very poor and I do not believe that e.g. the windows have been cleaned just once since the opening.
The pre-security screening is absolutely inefficeint and immigration is an absolute nighmare for foreigners. Waiting times of 1.5 hours are not unusual.

Obtaining a Visa on arrival proved a 1 hr 45 minute frustrating challenge with total confusion reigning on what seems to be a basically manual process, this despite the fact I was the first one at the counter and had excellent business sponsor. You MUST have Euros, and cannot change at the airport and no ATM, so be prepared, but they charge according to nationality...don'ask. They will ring up your sponsor, so make sure you have a local mobile number that works. Even with the money and the sponsor etc. etc it proved to be a challenge. many people still there after I left, some getting quite distressed.

Checking in is not as stressful but long queues for the two security gates you have to go through, and whilst not up to Indian or Chinese queuing standards, nevertheless many extremely pushy people who obviously felt it was their right to cut the queue and have to be physically rebuffed. Airport itself is not too bad once inside, fairly new, but pretty dirty, it is more the bureaucratic systems that are a mess.
