A small turboprop aircraft and a helicopter should have been shown in that advertisement instead of Airbus A320 family aircraft.

Hot air balloon flights should also be encouraged for the promotion of tourism and adventure.

Due to aircraft availability issues for flight operations under Tourism Promotion & Regional Integration (TPRI) licence, the aircraft seating capacity condition has been removed from Pakistan's National Aviation Policy - 2019 and will be decided by Pakistan Civil Aviation Authority (CAA) after due deliberations on case to case basis.

Earlier, TPRI operators were allowed to operate flights on socio-economic routes with aircraft having up to 40 seats capacity.
