They should also do the 773’s. Eventually UK will come back online. Would be good to have refurbished aircraft deployed.

Initially passenger cabin of two PIA Boeing 777-200LR aircraft registrations AP-BGY and AP-BGZ will be refurbished with new seats and functional IFE. Project to be completed in 6 to 8 months.

Later, more Boeing 777s in PIA fleet will get their passenger cabin refurbished with new seats and functional IFE. Maybe younger Boeing 777-300ER aircraft passenger cabins to be refurbished.
