PIA to resume flight operations to bring Pakistanis abroad

Pakistan International Airlines (PIA) has been allowed to partially resume flight operations to bring back citizens stranded abroad.

In the first stage, PIA will bring a limited number of travelers, the PIA spokesperson said.
PIA will fly stranded passengers from UK and Canada who were to travel to Karachi, Islamabad and Lahore, the spokesperson added.

Flight operations from Toronto will resume on April 3, whereas operations from the UK will resume on April 4.
All these flights will land at the Islamabad airport. All passengers will be tested for coronavirus in the airport lounges and transferred to hotel for six hours.

Passengers who tests negative will then be permitted to go home; those who tests positive will be transferred to a quarantine.
