Let's hope it gets off the ground unlike Global Spirit.

Good luck to them.

Hopefull this one actually starts flying.

Demand is high for flights for Pakistan...and PK is facing no direct competition on many routes.

UKIA...sounds like PIA.

They have 2 B762s which are ex-United aircraft.

Looks like they didn't bother chaning the ex-United Airlines Colour scheme all too much..basically it looks like they just changed the tail a little

good luck!!

It sounds shady and should be called Fraud International Airlines.

The entire website is centered around ex United 767 photos, and even the pictures are disgusting quality.

Most pages on the website are still under construction.

An overweight unattractive woman wearing a kurta shalwar with a hat is suppose to be the cabin crew, with 8 pictures of the same "model"

Why does this airline need to its customers where the planes are comming from, to many unprofessional discrepancies.

Next we might see a couple of adds in Pakistani newspapers asking for a applications for jobs, where each applicant will be asked to deposit 5000 rupees for an application form, and with around a 1000 applicants who can be sucked into this program, well FIA has just cleared 5 million rupees.

This is another Global Spirt Airlines drama unfolding once again.

I heared alot about this airline so its best to keep your money and thoughts off this airline. It is another episode of GlobalSpirits or what not, so please don't waste your time, space and effort on these FlightSimulator airlines. They make me puke and laugh too. yuk
The orbital speed of the Earth around the Sun averages about 30 km/s or 18 mps (108,000 km/h or 67000 mph).
Which means we're travelling 97 times the speed of sound. And yet we can't feel the motion,
SubhanAllah

taz95 - What job do you do with them if you don't mind me asking?

Also are you in a position to say when they are due to start flights and also to which cities?

Yes they have purchased 3 767 which are ex UA. 2 are in Burnei getting C check done and one ready to fly to UK in Jan. Their Head Office is in Sheffield. That is where we all had our interviews.
