U.S. Fines Emirates for Overflying Tehran FIR
Emirates says it inadvertently failed to remove its JetBlue code while flying over the Tehran FIR.

The U.S. Department of Transportation has fined Emirates Airlines $400,000 for flying through Iranian airspace over a period of more than two weeks in July 2019 in violation of an FAA order, the department said in a consent order issued Thursday. The DOT holds jurisdiction over the matter because Emirates operates under a code-share agreement with New York-based JetBlue Airways.
