PIA To Add Eight More Aircraft By Next Year
National airline PIA has planned to increase its operational aircraft.
According to the spokesperson, PIA will increase its operational aircraft as the ban on PIA by the European Aviation Safety Agency has been lifted.
PIA is planning to expand its network to Europe and the UK. In the first phase of the plan, the number of Boeing 777 operational fleet will increase to 8.
The spokesperson said that the number of Airbus A320 aircraft is expected to reach 12, while the number of ATR aircraft will increase to 2 under PIA’s plan. These fleet upgrades are in line with PIA’s aggressive operating plan for 2025.
According to the spokesperson, the national airline is making every effort to expand its network. The new air routes will provide low-cost travel facilities to expatriates living abroad.
PIA’s on-time departure rate is exceeding 90 percent, which is the highest in the country.
