Germania (Berlin Schönefeld) has announced the resumption of flights from Düsseldorf, Munich and Stockholm Arlanda to Erbil and Sulaymaniyah in Northern Iraq effective March 17. The flights were suspended in February 2014.

"The reason for the temporary suspension of flights was the unilateral and short notice revocation of air traffic rights on these routes by the Iraqi Civil Aviation Authority (ICAA)," the German carrier said in a statement.
