In his press conference, Hildenbrand said that they have acquired services of an Int'l Airline for training its staff, any idea which airline is it?

PIA is now on the runway to profitability and the airline is holding talks to acquire three modern aircraft on lease, according to airline's CEO Bernd Hildenbrand. The airline earned operating profit in the months of March and April.

Although there is a very long way for PIA to go the early signs after the appointment of Hildenbrand look good.

Re: Hildenbrand magic makes PIA profitable
I don't think he deserves all the credit. Shujat azeem kick started many of the things. It's just a lot of the fruits are being bore now and falling under this german tenture for which he is getting credit.
I'm not saying his work is bad, but lets not ignore that 11 a320s and multiple 777 among other things were added in the past 2 years. And neither do I hold azeem in high esteem as he had his own shortcomings as well.

Rightly said Uzair, Hildenbrand performance can be judge after one year of his service with PIA, but seems like he is on right track.

According to PTV News, today PIA Chairman Azam Saigol and PIA CEO Bernd Hildenbrand met Finance Minister Ishaq Dar in Islamabad.
The meeting was informed that PIA flights operation has achieved ninety percent punctuality and the airline is in the process of acquiring new aircraft.
Maybe PIA team sought financial assistance from finance ministry?

Re: Hildenbrand magic makes PIA profitable
What's the point of bringing up a new livery when the current one is only 5 years old? Take example of Emirates,Qatar,Saudia,KLM, etc. They have surely made few changes but donot change the livery every 5 years.

Re: Hildenbrand magic makes PIA profitable
But their livery is good and PIA is in the process of changing its image so a new look has to be given

Please name one "progressive pakistani business person" who is a specialist in the airline industry?rayyanullah wrote:Whatevever he said any progressive Pakistani business person knows and would also say and do to move the airline forward. What then is the reason for hiring this gentleman?
Sadly the chairman of our cricket team has never played professional cricket in his life and the same applies in all major institutions across the country. We need to change this mindset and hire specialists. This is what Mr hildenbrand always stresses upon too, that we need to change our mindset and stop living in the past and evolve with the rest of the world.
