Under an agreement with Rayyan Air, chartered PIA Boeing 777 will transport cargo items between Urumchi and Pakistan for four months.
The utilization of PIA Boeing 777 fleet has fallen due to COVID-19 pandemic and European Union Aviation Safety Agency (EASA) decision suspending operation of airline's flights to/from Europe for six months (July 1 to December 31).

In June 2013, PIA and Rayyan Air launched Airbus A310-300 once-a-week passenger flight between Islamabad and Kashgar.

In recent times PIA Boeing 777s also transported COVID-19 relief goods from China to Pakistan. The aircraft's passenger cabin was also used for transporting cargo items.

Inaccurate journalism- just a missing ‘y’ and the context changes. I wrote to Dawn informing them it’s RayyanAir and not Ryan Air the Irish low cost, but they did not post my comment.

I think they got wrong information about the airline from some news agency.
Nearly all Pakistani Urdu and English news reports called it Ireland's Ryanair.
