Re: PIA to Start Twice a Week Service for Barcelona
It's good to have it, but once weekly each to Lahore and ISB won't help much. Any body knows the load of Inaugural flight?

Does this mean more A333 will join the PIA fleet?

Re: PIA to Start Twice a Week Service for Barcelona
Recently I saw a picture of AP-BHW, tail section is also missing paint from some parts. Engineering department should also note these things when an aircraft is sent to the hanger and then the concerned authorities should do the work like painters add the missing area of paint,etcAbbas Ali wrote: ↑Fri Feb 03, 2017 8:11 am PIA Boeing 777-340ER registration AP-BHW photographed at Barcelona Airport on January 29, 2017.
