PLEASE HELP!!!! TRAVEL FROM KIRKUK

PostAuthor: AlbaSaab » Thu Aug 24, 2006 1:56 pm

Can anyone offer any advice on the safest way to travel from Kirkuk to Syria, or Kirkuk to Jordan. In fact, can anyone help in any way as to the best and safest route to get from Kirkuk to Britain? Let's assume money is no issue.

Thank you.

kirkuk is not a very safe city, because it is not under Kurdistan Regional Government's control .

Kirkuk is close to Sulaymaniah (may be 2 horus by car) and there is a road to sulaymaniah , the best way is ,
to go to Sulaymaniay by car, and then in sulaymainah you have two ways
going by airoplane to europe through sulaymaniah airport, or going by land to Turkey . (turkey is better than syria I guess)

but make sure the childern dont go to Baghdad from kirkuk... kirkuk baghdad road is full terrorists...and baghdad is very insecure city... the best way is to go to sulaymaniyah .
First they ignore you, then they laugh at you, then they fight you, then YOU WIN !

That is what I thought, but he seems insistent that he has to go to Syria or Jordan first, with the children, to get a plane fly to the UK.

The reason I'm asking for help is that he lives 40 miles away, and doesn't have much knowledge of how to use a pc, but I will see him probably this weekend and get him on to this forum, so as he can explain the situation.

As kak Dyaoko stated - the best solution would be to go by plane from London to Sulêmaniye - and then by car to Kerkûk... That is the safest route both ways... :)

You could also travel to Hewlêr (Arbil) by plane - from London... And then by car to Kerkûk... Hewlêr, Sulêmaniye and Duhok are 100% safe... Nothing to fear...

Or - he could go by plane to Istanbul/Ankara - and then another plane to Amed (Diyarbakir) in North Kurdistan - and then drive to South Kurdistan (Iraqi Kurdistan) by taxi/car... That is the second safest route...

kak diri her friend's childern are in kirkuk (they dont want to go to kirkuk) they want to go out of kurdistan to britain .

by my idea , the only un-safe travel will be kirkuk -sulaymaniay, (they should hire a trustable KURDISH taxi ) then as they arrive in sulaymaniay they can decide what to do next , they have several options and all of them are secure (because they are in Kurdistan now and now they are safe)

- take a plane in sulaymaniah airport and if sulaymaniay airport didnt have the right flight they must go to the other kurdish city -Hewler (arbil ) -

and if they want to go by car, it will be also ok but not as safe as flight and they have several options , turkey jordan syria ...or may be even Iran .(some go to tehran and fly from there to london) ,

I am sure they can always ask kurdish peopel's help in sulaymaniah to advise them .

What about the journey from Arbil/Sulaymania, to Kirkuk by road; is it safe?

There isn't a problem getting a flight, as far as I know; it's the journey to and from Kirkuk. I don't understand why he says he has to go to Syria or Jordan to catch a flight.

Yeah - the road between Kerkûk and other Kurdish cities is fairly safe... :)

No incidents there... Just south of Kerkûk... But also a lot in the city itself...

How come he HAS to go through ARAB states? :shock:

Don't you worry, I will!!!

Yes, I will ask him to join this forum. As much as we can understand each other, the finer details are sometimes lost with our language "barrier".

He says the Kurdish government won't give his kids a visa.

if they have Iraqi passports they can either travel to dubai or turkey, no visa is required. the road between Kerkuk and hewler(erbil) is pretty save. And if they have UK/EU visa they can travel to either London, Copenhagen, Frankfurt directly. Dint go to Syria or Iran, that's my advice.

I think they have Iraqi documents, so aren't allowed to get visas for Kurdistan. Is the road safer to Turkey, than the road to Syria?
