PK787/PK788 Wednesday flight cancelled

Post by Huzayl »

First the Friday one was cancelled and now Wednesday one as well. This flight is only operational on Sunday. This could be due to the shortage of b777. Many might think that it is because of load but I highly doubt that as I am a frequent flyer of this route and this flight is always jam packed. It may be as AP-BHV And AP-BGJ aren’t active due to engine problems

How are passengers loads for PIA Karachi-London flights?

For destinations like London, PIA faces tough competition from gulf airlines especially Emirates at Karachi.

UK (London, Manchester ) and Toronto are the long haul profitable west bound routes left for PIA. dont know the number, but i guess its pretty high load factor for PIA. On the other hand Emirates has 9 or 10 (?) daily A380 Dubai London LHR Flights with recent 777 additon to London Stansted and 6 or 7 (?) Khi-DxB. The competition is very tight indeed.
