Amsterdam/Lahore

Post by Suleman »

PIA have changed once more the schedule from amsterdam. They were fly 772 into amsterdam but they have changed it back to A310. I don't understand them. It's very hard to get an ticket on 30 june 2006. I don't like the A310.

Maybe they found a better use for the 772?

Where are you getting your tickets may i ask? Direct or from an agent? Try it with an agent. Also econ may be full but u can always go econ+ or biz.
A310 is an ok machine but do bring your own entertainment (book/toys/music etc).

If you are unable to find tickets from NL, what do u think about the possibility of taking a train to Brussels and flying from there granted you are going alone and dont have much luggage?

Which airline are you talking about? Etihad? If you talk about it, I heard that the tickets to pak have a really interesting price from brussels (one stop in Abu Dhabi).
SULEMAN if you want I can post the office number and the address in brussels?

If i were you i would take a flight to London (LHR) and take PIA/EK/KU/GF from there to Lahore. 30 June is also off-peak season so you should get a very good fare and their are plenty of seats available!

excellent suggestion. That is also what I would do. Another option is to buy 2 tickets. 1 for AMS-DXB and another on AirBlue

I can check on fares, but I would need to know your return date.

The cost will be higher, but if he can't get seats on other carriers, there might not be other options. The visa is GBP30

Another option is via MXP.

AMS-MXP AZ
MXP-LHE PK

or via ATH.

AMS-ATH KL
MXP-ATH PK
