Flight operation from Allama Iqbal int’l Airport partially resumed
Lahore’s Allama Iqbal International Airport has partially resumed operations after almost four days.

The government has already allowed Karachi, Quetta, Peshawar and Islamabad airports to resume their operations. Other airports remain closed.
A notice to airmen (Notam) issued by the Civil Aviation Authority said that flights will be allowed to operate along existing routes
According to the CAA, the flight operations will completely resume by March 8.
The flights from Lahore to Dubai, Saudi Arabia, Europe and London will be allowed to operate.
A PIA spokesperson said that PK 304, which travels from Karachi to Lahore, will land at 4:45pm, while PK 305, which travel from Lahore to Karachi, will leave the airport at 6pm.
