The airline was said to have ceased operations on 26 May 2010, partly due to claims for compensation from Kuwait arising out of the Gulf War, but continues to operate domestic and regional routes till today.

Iraqi Airways was founded in 1945 and is a member of the Arab Air Carriers' Organization. They operated the first flight on 29 January 1946, ever since they expanded into a global airline covering a wide network of destinations in Africa, Asia, Europe, North and South America prior to the 1980–88 Iran–Iraq War as well as the 1990 Iraqi invasion of Kuwait, ensuing sanctions brought the airline's services to a halt, random charters for Hajj were operated in defiance during the 90s.
