Chairman Shaheen Air Complains Against Double Standards in Pakistan's Aviation Industry

Post by Abbas Ali »





Chairman Shaheen Air International (SAI) Kashif Sehbai has said that future of privately-owned airlines in Pakistan is in danger due to double standards in country's aviation industry. Operating private airlines has become difficult due to hurdles and under such conditions he sees end of private airlines in next five years. Karachi's landing charges are double that of Dubai, he said.

Private airlines were not consulted on the introduction of National Aviation Policy in 2015. How can we get solution to our problems when posts of Chairman PIA, Secretary Aviation and Chairman CAA Board are held by the same person who in such situation cannot take action against himself and do justice, he said.

Delaying tactics are used against private airlines that pay millions of dollars. A number of aircraft recently inducted in Shaheen Air fleet are grounded because the airline is not allowed to start flights on three new routes, Mr. Sehbai said.

Aviation industry has potential to bring billions of foreign exchange to a country. It is very sad what these clowns have done to local aviation industry.

Largest private airline that has taken 15 years to establish itself 19 operational aircraft earning revenue providing service to the Pakistani public no burden on the government is about to shut.

Who will take over this huge gap. PIA is not ready, neither is Air Blue.

Bad days coming in future for Pakistani traveling public.

PIA only solution will be to double its fares and fleece the customers.

I would suggest a 50-50 partnership between shaheen and GOP for betterment of Pak aviation. A merger of Shaheen & PIA to form a new airline. while GOP takes PIA loans in return for its hotels.

Why on earth should Shaheen merge with a overstaffed corrupt national airline losing 3.5 billion rupees a month??

What is the logic of this merger?????????????????????????????????????????

I mentioned a new airline should be formed. It is obvious the surplus staff will be fired.
