Re: PIA Starts New Service Between Lahore and Muscat
Abbas, i think PIA8229 & PIA229 are same flights with 2 flight numbers, most probably 8229 will be for some codeshare, Turkish?

Re: PIA Starts New Service Between Lahore and Muscat
Thank you Raihan for the input and yes it seems PK-229 will be the actual flight number.
For some reason the flight today appeared on www.flightradar24.com as PK-8229 not PK-229.
https://www.flightradar24.com/data/flights/pk8229
https://www.flightradar24.com/data/flights/pk229
Oman Airports website today showed PK-8229 on-time and PK-229 as cancelled. A codeshare flight would have had a different IATA airline code before number 8229.
