You can only go so long and so far with 1-2 aircrafts.
I hope nobody buys their tickets...what a shady airline

I have just checked on their website for flight bookings. There were no flights for this week but they are booking flights from 13th onwards. Does anyone knows what is going on? Are their planes gone for checks or something?

The only flying AP-BLG had check A, it is due to be up in coming days again. AP-BLE as per Air Indus people will also be up next week. AP-BLF is damaged beyond repair due to bullets. The UAE based B737-300 with business class seats either flew back or expected to fly back after remaining on ground at Karachi for a month. Reasons range from the A/C being 20 year old to Air Indus -CAA relationship. Plus disagreement between the lessor and Air Indus.

Damn once I was served with a cold sandwich on the night coach on Khi-Lhe sector. It was unbitable plus in swallowable. Last night came to know, non of air Indus A/C are equipped with ovens to warm the meals.

While I was flying to Karachi from Islamabad on March 28th, I saw one active aircraft of Air Indus at Jinnah International with passengers coming out at remote parking bay. All other flights (probably 3) were canceled due to unknown reasons. While I was coming back on 31st, all Air Indus flights from Karachi were canceled as well. Thank God I was flying with PIA :)

This is from May 17. The inside lights were on and time was around 6-7pm. I was boarding Saudi flight. This is ISB airport.


To Abbas, I have some Saudi 747-400 business class pics for Pakistan sector and some 777-200LR economy class to Canada. Where to post them?
