This is some good news also BHX should be back aswell to perform Manchester flight. With revenue from Manchester and Paris flights PIA should now be looking at getting AP-BID of the ground, as it only needs new engines.

AP-BMS is operational but AP-BGK is grounded now. Still only 3x 777s operational. BGY yet to come back.

I’m guessing BGK is undergoing maintenance as it has been quite the workhorse this year. Also why are Toronto flights still being cancelled when BHV is available?

Is AP-BGK still flying or will it be undergoing maintenance? Is it known how long or why? Weird how PIA always grounds 1 plane to bring the other, simply incapable of increasing active fleet :applause:

If AP-BGK or BHX fail to MAN then perhaps maybe use AP-BMH or AP-BHV or AP-BMS to MAN instead

The sticker is a lovely touch. Is anyone from the Manchester area who will be spotting the first flight?
