PIA Advertisement  (Bjorn Larsson Collection)

This advertisement from PIA timetable effective from October 1, 1960 reads: "We're going by Boeing... three times a week! To the Middle East and Europe by PIA.

Our record regularity, top performance, and personalized service have made more passengers fly our Boeing 707 Intercontinental - the largest and fastest jet-liner in the world.

The popularity of the 'Star Jet' service has made it essential for us to put on more flights.

To provide you with more pure jet flights to Middle East and Europe, we are going by Boeing three times a week from 1st October 1960."
