Re: Where is Shaheen A330 AP-BKL
AP-BKL was ferried from Karachi to Istanbul on January 1, 2014, and is probably retired.
Info source: http://www.aerotransport.org
Btw, today City42 news channel was reporting long delays suffered by Shaheen Air flights between Lahore and Saudi cities of Jeddah and Riyadh due to unavailability/shortage of aircraft.
Probably it's related to reduction in number of Airbus A330-300 aircraft in Shaheen Air fleet.
Shaheen Air January 15 flight NL-735 from Lahore to Riyadh is late by 24 hours, according to Lahore Airport website.

Re: Where is Shaheen A330 AP-BKL
Why would AP-BKL be retired so soon when it joined the SAI fleet so recently? It makes no sense leasing an a/c which is on the verge of retirement and phasing out. It might have been ferried to IST for scheduled maintenance by TK Engineering.

Probably to get scrapped in UK in case it's getting retired.

Re: Where is Shaheen A330 AP-BKL
Maybe due to that reason it got leased for petty bucks, and SAI decided to take this and use it for their operations.Moin wrote:Why would AP-BKL be retired so soon when it joined the SAI fleet so recently?

Re: Where is Shaheen A330 AP-BKL
I have asked a friend of mine who's a spotter at IST about whether BKL is there or not.

I just received a reply from my friend in IST who confirmed seeing a SAI A330 there and will send me a pic which I will post here when he does.
