KARACHI: Delta Air Lines [NYSE:DAL] has appointed Air Transport Activities (Pvt) Ltd., part of the Avari Group, as its General Sales Agent (GSA) to strengthen the airline’s sales and marketing presence in Pakistan. As part of the new agreement, Air Transport Activities will open dedicated Delta-branded sales offices in three cities – Islamabad, Lahore and Karachi – making it easier for customers to book travel on Delta and its partners between Pakistan and the United States.
