Good to see PIA opening more to Europe, especially with the ME crisis. But with these flights coming in 3 months, I expect and hope PIA management will bring more aircraft back/lease new aircraft.
The best of them all

So KHI-LHR and ISB-BHX are the only two pre-ban routes yet to be restored. Maybe flights might resume by July-August.

I read (perhaps erroneously) that BHX operating on this route has a refurbished cabin. Is that true? Does anyone have pictures?

Same interior, new black leather seats in business class, dream stream entertainment now available as in BGK. That's it.

PK702 MAN-ISB delayed from 7.30PM to 8AM the next day. No point in introducing extra services if they can’t even maintain their current low frequencies. I assume tommorrows London flight will also be heavily affected.

They have now cancelled PK 749 to Paris on Friday.
