Preparations to resume flights to Europe initiated by PIA

ISLAMABAD: Preparations to resume direct flights to France and other European countries have been initiated by the national flag carrier Pakistan International Airlines (PIA).

The management of Pakistan International Airlines (PIA) has issued a tender for cargo handling services in France. And has invited applications from interested companies by August 24.

Moreover, PIA’s spokesperson stated that the applications will be submitted to the PIA’s country manager in France.

After a three-year ban, the national carrier is expected to resume direct flights to European countries once it receives clearance from the European Union Aviation Safety Agency (EASA).

A delegation from the European Union Aviation Safety Agency (EASA) is scheduled to visit Pakistan in September. To conduct an audit of the PIA and the Civil Aviation Authority (CAA). Successfully clearing the audit could lead to a reversal of the ban on PIA flights to the European Union.

Aviation Minister Khawaja Saad Rafique previously announced that Pakistan International Airlines is likely to resume flights to Britain. Within the next three months. The resumption of services to Britain was the result of new legislation that removed the final hurdle for PIA to fly to the United Kingdom. However, the resumption of services to other European destinations was not included in this announcement.

However, the suspension of PIA flights to Europe and the UK occurred in 2020. After the European Union’s Aviation Safety Agency (EASA) revoked the national carrier’s authorization. To fly to the bloc following a fake pilot license scandal in Pakistan.
