PIA has two weekly A310 flights into Kuala Lumpur.

Twice a week flights are also bad for crew rostering. The crew of PK898 after operating a six hour flight gets a layover for atleast 3 nights. While PK896 crew gets a four night layover.

PIA should add atleast two weekly flights from Lahore to Kuala Lumpur, giving connections to different Far East destinations.

Otherwise a third flight from Karachi should be introduced.

PIA needs to break the twice weekly habit, atleast does not work for me.

Also how did PIA expect its twice weekly A310 flight to Singapore, to compete against SIA 777s into Lahore and Karachi.
