Maybe we walked past each other in the concourse)

It was… actually really good. Service was fantastic: staff were friendly and helpful and very professional. And even though it was a short flight, they served a really good hot meal.

I do really like the logo. I still have the purloined sick bag somewhere.

This was in the Los Angeles area, so I guess Iran Air also served LAX? Maybe they went THR/NYC/LAX and back? LA area has a big Persian diaspora.
