The Pakistan International Airlines (PIA) has initiated bi-weekly flights from Karachi to Zhob as the first flight took off from the coastal city earlier this week, according to news sources.
PIA Chief Executive Officer (CEO) Air Marshal Arshad Malik has said that the new route from Karachi to Zhob (and back) has been initiated to cater to the needs of the citizens and business community.
These direct flights will be carried out every Tuesday and Friday. Prior to the flight’s departure from Jinnah International Airport, an inaugural ceremony was hosted by PIA District Manager Faisal Kharal and Airport Manager Olympian Ahmad Alam – which was attended by passengers as well.
These direct flights are in line with Prime Minister Imran Khan’s address in Quetta, in which he highlighted the incumbent government’s vision of bringing economic prosperity to Balochistan through a series of infrastructural and human development projects. He also added that Pakistan can learn from China which has successfully defeated poverty by bringing socio-economic reforms.
