Valid Foreign Operator Certificate (FOC) obtained from General Authority of Civil Aviation (GACA) of Saudi Arabia I think indicates PIA plans to use these aircraft for Hajj flights this year.older aircraft with valid GACA FOC will also be considered

Now they will keep on wet-leasing A330s for two years before getting them on dry lease.

This wont be a surprise at all if three wrecked 757/ 767 show up. Lot of such junk is available in Europe.

Airplane is flown with brain not with stick and rudder.

Re: PIA to Wet Lease up to Three Wide Body Aircraft
There are rumours going around that KLM want to get rid of their A330s these have been in their fleet since 2007. Give it a try?
All The Way, It's PIA

Re: PIA to Wet Lease up to Three Wide Body Aircraft
they may find out after the lease that the plane is too 'crapy' to be sent back while the owner will walk to the bank-the 3months lease largely over the real value of the plane.riz wrote:Time for some Real Crap to join PIA. God bless saudia.
an hellenic imperial b742 will get some company.
air asia X announced that they will be looking to wet lease their a333 for hajj. 12 business class seats and 367 eco in 3-3-3 layout

Re: PIA to Wet Lease up to Three Wide Body Aircraft
I wish PIA should try to ask TG Thai Airways for wet lease B747-400 or A330-300 or A340-600 because TG 4 744 HS-TGK, TGL, TGM, TGN still park DMK old BKK airport also A333 HS-TEC TED TEE TEG still park too but Sunday 29 March 2015 next week all 6 six A340-642 HS-TNA/B/C/D/E/F and HS-TEA/B/G/H/J/K/L/M will withdrawal in service will park. Nobody buy or lease 4 A340-500 HS-TLA/B/C/D for long time 3 three years. Up to PIA decide.

Re: PIA to Wet Lease up to Three Wide Body Aircraft
PIA should look at dry leasing former Thai A300-600 fleet. All economy layout of around 290 will be perfect for Haj and Umra. Plus our own A310 crews can operate the aircraft.
Thai has five in storage all from 1998, might be a great short term option for PIA.

Re: PIA to Wet Lease up to Three Wide Body Aircraft
I think four-engined wide body aircraft like Boeing 747 and Airbus A340 are not sought under this bidding invitation.
It's because bidding document on PIA website seeks information about aircraft's engine number 1 and engine number 2.
Engines' information required includes engine make, model, type, serial number and maintenance records etc..
So, its seems the competition will be between twin-engine wide body aircraft like Boeing 767, Boeing 777, Airbus A300 and Airbus A330 in this bidding invitation.

it sure takes forever with all this bidding and all that. Why can't they make this faster and add more widebodies in the fleet quickly so that airline can increase its efficiency and network

Re: PIA to Wet Lease up to Three Wide Body Aircraft
Under new aviation policy, the aircraft have cannot be older than 12 years at time of induction.
Does it mean we won't be seeing 1990s plane? This ad says 1998 and onward. Per aviation policy, the ad should say 2003 and onward.

Re: PIA to Wet Lease up to Three Wide Body Aircraft
i think they mean induction as dry lease.they do have exceptions for hajj.
12 yrs is non-sense.
pakistani airlines dont have the funds to induct newer planes.shaheen would have never been able to add those a333 and b734!
in my opinion, a343,a346 & b744 should be allowed as wet lease options for haj
