Re: PIA Announces Resumption of UK Flights from August 14 With Alternate Arrangements
The airbus being used by PIA for UK flights is a high density aircraft with 3-3-3 layout.
Not an ideal aircraft for an 8 hour flight from Pakistan to UK.
PIA needs to upgrade to a better type even though this is a A330-900 NEO but the layout is not well suited.
Strong rumors that Pakistan will be off the red list end of August, at which point Virgin and BA will expand their flights and PIA is going to be left high and dry.
PIA should try to resolve its issues with the EASA and try to bring in newer planes for its renewed flights to UK.
Maybe return BMH BMG BMS and lease four A350s for UK, USA and Canada routes.
