PIA names acting CEO as it prepares to resume European flights Pakistan

PIA resumes flights to Europe after pandemic suspension.

Resuming Flights to Europe

PIA, Pakistan’s national carrier, has announced its plans to resume flights to Europe, marking a significant milestone in the airline’s recovery efforts. The decision comes after a prolonged period of suspension due to the COVID-19 pandemic.

Key Factors Influencing the Decision

Several factors have contributed to PIA’s decision to resume flights to Europe. These include:

  • The decline in COVID-19 cases in Pakistan, which has led to a decrease in the number of passengers requiring quarantine. The relaxation of travel restrictions in Europe, allowing for the resumption of flights to several countries. The airline’s efforts to improve its operational efficiency and reduce costs, enabling it to sustain itself financially.

    However, the EASA maintained its stance, citing concerns about the lack of transparency and accountability in Pakistan’s aviation sector.
