Pakistan: PIA cancels flights amid fuel shortage

By IBNS
Oct 19, 2023..

Pakistan International Airlines (PIA) continues to struggle to operate the flight service amid restrictions on fuel supply owing to non-payment of dues as well as certain operational issues.


The  loss-making state-owned entity was recently forced to cancel   24 domestic and international flig­hts and delay 12 others.

Among the 24 cancelled flights, 11 were international and 13 were domestic. The PIA also cancelled over two dozen flights — 16 international and eight domestic flights — for Wednesday (today) as well while some flights are expected to be delayed, reports Dawn News.

A PIA spokesman told Dawn News that due to a limited fuel supply for PIA aircrafts on a daily basis and for operational reasons, the flights were cancelled while the departure of some flights had been rescheduled.

He said that 13 domestic flights and 11 international flights were cancelled on Tuesday due to the non-availability of fuel, while 12 flights were delayed.

PIA claimed that the pas­­s­engers of the cance­lled flights were accommodated on alternative flights.
