Pakistan's national flag carrier, PIA (Pakistan International Airlines), boasts a rich history dating back to 1946, making it one of Asia's oldest airlines . With its main hub in Karachi's Jinnah International Airport, PIA operates a network of over 50 destinations spanning four continents. Passengers can choose domestic routes within Pakistan or venture further to international locations across Asia, Europe, North America, and the Middle East.
PIA's fleet consists primarily of Airbus A320 family jets for shorter journeys and Boeing 777s for long-haul flights. The airline offers a frequent flyer program called Awards +Plus and multiple cabin classes, with Business Class featuring enhanced amenities for a more comfortable travel experience. PIA has played a notable role in Pakistani aviation history, even being the first non-Communist airline to fly into China in 1964. While the airline has faced hurdles in recent times, it remains a key player and is continuously working on improvements to its fleet, services, and network.
