ISLAMABAD – Minister for Aviation Khawaja Saad Rafique has announced up to 15 percent reduction in the PIA’s fares on international routes.
In a video message, Khawaja Saad said that Pakistan International Airlines had decreased fares of all domestic flights following the reduction in prices of jet fuel and now it reduced fares on international routes too.
He said, it has been decided that there would be a significant decrease of 15 percent in the PIA’s fare for the flights operating on the routes of Gulf and the United Arab Emirates, a 10 percent reduction in tickets for Saudi Arabia and 8 per cent for Canada-bound flights.
