It was long awaited

Despite of huge potential no private air liner bother to run the flights on this route

Thanks to PIA

Would have been nice if PIA could have introduced a few A321s.

The larger aircraft with an ideal layout of 16/170 would have allowed PIA to offer decent club class seats on the 5 hour flight rather than an all economy A320s with a narrower seat pitch ok for a shorter 1.5 to 2 hour flight but not 5 hours to Jeddah.

On August 2, PIA resumed operating non-stop flight from Faisalabad to Jeddah.
