PIA Now Operating Flights from New York to Lahore Only?

Post by Abbas Ali »

Is PIA now performing twice-a-week flights from New York to Lahore only?

Flight PK-722 every Tuesday from New York to Lahore.
Flight PK-712 every Saturday from New York to Lahore.

Do passengers from New York now have to take connecting domestic flights to Karachi and Islamabad?

PIA should focus on Europe and USA from ISL and Lahore. Its very difficult for PIA to compete with ME3 from Karachi. PIA should start daily flight to LHR and Manchester from ISL and LHE.

Im guessing LHE is the only lucrative market for them for the JFK flights. I remember they had flights to JFK from ISB and KHI also. That MAN stop is a killer, they really should have picked a stop which had US pre-clearance facilities.

PIA721 originates in Karachi and terminates in New York, hence operating KHI-LHE-MAN-JFK (OPKC-OPLA-EGCC-KJFK)

Similarly, the return flight originates in New York and terminates in Karachi as PIA722: JFK-LHE-KHI, as per I noticed previously last month or so.

eventually pia should should originate its jfk flights from lhe/isb only. divert khi originating passengers via abu dhabi by etihad to make full use of the code share and AUH pre clearance facilities.
