DXB bound AP-BOM returned to SKT this morning. It’s probably heading to Lahore now as PK-8385. I wonder why it didn’t divert to Multan or Lahore initially.

On March 9, PIA Airbus A320 aircraft registration AP-BOM departed from Sialkot Airport Runway 04 at 12:11 PM as flight PK179 to Dubai. The aircraft returned and landed on Runway 22 of Sialkot Airport at 1:33 PM i.e. 1 hour & 22 minutes after takeoff. The aircraft initiated U-Turn around 12:43 PM towards Sialkot when it was flying at an altitude of 32,000 feet.

AP-BLS diverted many times in a past few days any news on that?

[A310]

Dubai bound flights were diverted today due to adverse weather conditions. That’s why 179 returned to Sialkot to drop off the passengers. Similarly PK-283 PEW-DXB diverted to Karachi today and later returned to Peshawar to drop off the passengers. BLS, however, yesterday landed back at Doha.
