Re: PIA US-Pak Non-stop soon
From toronto PIA started going to lahore and islamabad non stop a year ago, or prolly even b4 that. i like better. and boeing 777 are so comfortable and nice.
**OK…the 777 LR can take 300 passengers non stop from Houston to Karachi
in under 15 hrs and Chicago to KHI would be 1.5 hrs less:
My guess is from anywhere in the USA to Pakistan would be less than 16 hrs non stop…

Re: PIA US-Pak Non-stop soon

Re: PIA US-Pak Non-stop soon
777s are ETOPS Certified to fly 180 minutes from nearest Airport enroute, should an emergency arise which requires a diversion/landing.
Re: PIA US-Pak Non-stop soon
teggy I need more info on fare structure if you may.
Re: PIA US-Pak Non-stop soon
The international fares are not available on the official website (as of yet) unfortunately. :bummer:
You may need to call either PIA directly or consult with your travel agent.
Re: PIA US-Pak Non-stop soon
PIA is doing some hokey pokey stuff these days, moving people's dates around, due to some cargo routes or something...

being offered on the same days. Sounds like the price tag would empty my wallet.
Re: PIA US-Pak Non-stop soon
I heard that PIA flights had their engines fall out of the sky midway, is that true???? They were banned from the EU, because of safety issues, i hope its all better now, but they are quite expensive - cheaper to fly emirates from London. I flew once from Vancouver, Canada to London via Houston (arrgghh) Texas, and then from London Via Dubai to Islamabad. AWful bad bad bad.... I fell asleep in London and missed my flight! Journey took like four days.
Re: PIA US-Pak Non-stop soon
Are you guyz talking about Manchester, England?
^ Yes, it’s Manchester, England. And I haven’t heard an instance where an engine fell half way. 
And reason behind EU banning PIA planes was political, and had nothing to do with safety of the planes.

Re: PIA US-Pak Non-stop soon
I want to go from houston to karachi non-stop. About 10 years I guess, if PIA is still in business, that is.
