KARACHI: Pakistan Civil Aviation Authority (PCAA) Tuesday clarified that news circulating in media regarding suspension of British Airways flights due to non-availability of fuel at Islamabad International Airport is incorrect.
According to Pakistan Civil Aviation Authority information, Station Manager of British Airways at Islamabad Airport telephonically informed the Airport Manager PCAA Islamabad that flights to Islamabad will continue to operate till 15th June.
However, due to operational reasons, British Airways has suspended the flights to Islamabad from 15th to 30th June 2022. The suspension of flights is only due to operational reasons of British Airways.
In addition, PCAA has also taken report from supplier of aviation fuel at Islamabad Airport who confirmed that there is no shortage of fuel and storage tanks are full of product. British Airways will soon issue a clarification in this regard. Local management of British Airways at Islamabad is in coordination with Airport Manager PCAA Islamabad.
