PIA 742M to Mumbai

Flight schedules are showing the aircraft instead of a 743.

Why on earth are they sending the 74M's to Mumbai? With the AB4's no longer flying, is the A310 too small? Do they still send 743's there?

Also I'm surprised photography is so liberally allowed there, because until the recent past they had some silly regulations banning photography at airports like we still have here.

I'm more apalled at the fact that PIA is flying this ridiculous scheme to neigbouring countries almost all of whose airlines have horrible liveries, to think that they once flew there with the 1980's livery which was the best in the entire region, as well as the 90's liveries including Pashmina tail.

The Airbus A310 was operating this flight awhile ago, but PIA switched to the B742 Combi, could there be increased cargo or passenger loads to fill a B742M ??
