KARACHI — PIA has cancelled 14 flights to Europe over the next three weeks after the European Union imposed a safety ban on most of its fleet, PIA officials said yesterday.
Passengers for destinations including London, Manchester and Rome will be accommodated on other services, a senior official said. The PIA official said the flights have been cancelled up to March 26 after which the airline may try to lease more planes or take other measures.
It follows the European UnionÂ’s decision to allow only the airlineÂ’s eight Boeing 777 planes to fly to Europe.
| Guess the PIA better hurry up on that Airbus order. |
Civil aviation sources said they plan to further enhance safety measures in coming weeks.
| They might get the PIA up to Air Ukraine standards by 2011. |
