PIA resumes direct flights between Islamabad and Beijing

Pakistan International Airlines (PIA) has resumed direct flight operations between Pakistan and China, restoring air connectivity between Islamabad and Beijing after a temporary suspension.

The airline’s first flight under the renewed service operated on October 30, marking an important step towards strengthening travel and aviation links between the two countries.

Under the revised schedule, PIA will operate one direct flight every Friday between Islamabad and Beijing. The service is expected to provide passengers with a convenient travel option while improving connectivity between the two capitals.

PIA aims to offer competitive fares and maintain reliable flight operations to meet the travel needs of passengers travelling between Pakistan and China.

In addition to restoring direct services, the national flag carrier has expanded its cooperation with three major Chinese airlines: Air China, Shenzhen Airlines and Hainan Airlines.

The partnerships are expected to improve passenger connectivity and provide access to a wider network of destinations across China.

Through its cooperation with Air China, PIA passengers will be able to connect to several domestic destinations via Beijing, which serves as a major aviation hub.

The resumption of flights is expected to facilitate business travel, tourism and people-to-people exchanges while strengthening aviation cooperation between Pakistan and China.
