KARACHI: Prior to the Christmas and New Year holidays, domestic airfares have increased on the Pakistan International Airline (PIA) and local private aircraft.
Details indicate that due to the rise in domestic travel in advance of the Christmas and New Year holidays, Pakistan International Airline (PIA) and other private airlines have raised their domestic and international rates.
The cost of a PIA one-way ticket from Karachi to Islamabad has jumped to Rs36,000; a two-way ticket between the same cities now costs Rs71,000. According to sources, there will probably be a big decrease in prices following the Christmas and winter vacations.
