Two additional airlines to launch flights between UAE, Pakistan
Pakistan and the UAE have finalised an agreement allowing two additional airlines to begin operations between the two countries.
Pakistan’s Ambassador to the UAE, Faisal Niaz Tirmizi, told Gulf News that the deal, which includes the introduction of new low-cost airline services, was concluded this week after discussions with UAE officials.
“As part of this agreement, Pakistan’s AirSial will begin flights from three Pakistani cities to Abu Dhabi while Wizz Air will operate flights between Abu Dhabi and two cities in Pakistan,” ambassador Tirmizi said.
Such airlines would connect five Pakistani cities with the UAE within two to three months.
He mentioned that the new services are expected to start within the next two to three months, with airlines set to announce the final route details and flight schedules shortly.
“This agreement goes beyond just increasing the number of flights. It’s about expanding trade, commerce, and cultural exchange between our two nations.”
This comes days before Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif is scheduled to visit the UAE in February for the World Government Summit.
Flights between the two countries are operated by at least eight airlines, including Emirates, Etihad Airways, Fly Dubai, PIA, Fly Jinnah, Air Arabia, Serene Air, and Air Blue.
