The Pakistan International Airline has reduced its special flights’ fares by 20 to 30 percent, extending maximum relief to the nationals stranded in the United Arab Emirates due to the Coronavirus pandemic.
Addressing a meeting in Islamabad, Special Assistant to the Prime Minister on Overseas Pakistanis and Human Resource Development Sayed Zulfikar Abbas Bukhari said fare for the UAE- bound special flights would come into effect from tomorrow.
He said the government’s top priority is to ensure the repatriation of all those people who are stranded in UAE and want to come back to Pakistan. The special assistant said the government has increased capacity to repatriate 2, 000 people per week to 6,000.
