PK741 ISB-JED delayed

Post by Abdulrafeysiddiqui »

PK741 on 1st Aug is delayed. The new time for departure is 5:45 in the morning of 2nd Aug. Does any body knows the reason for the delay of more than 6 hours? PIA website shows that it will be operated by A310. Abbas Bhai do you have any info regarding PK741?

The main reason is shortage of plane.Usually B777 performs to flight PK741,especially B777-300ER, but all three are busy at this time and three B777-200ER also are busy in flights. B777-200LR AP-BGZ is grounded for maintenance and B777-200ER AP-BHX is also grounded for unknown reason or maybe maintenance.
Probably A310 AP-BEQ will perform this flight,because AP-BGR and BEG are on resting this time and AP-BGP also is busy in flight this time.

Telephone operators at CAA airport flight enquiry facility in this case at Islamabad Airport are often helpful in explaining reason for flight delay.
