A total of 160 Pakistani passengers stuck at Bangkok's Suvarnabhumi International Airport will fly back home late on Saturday night.
The Pakistanis have been stuck at the Thai capital since March 25 when Pakistan imposed a ban on International flights, in a bid to curb the spread of the novel coronavirus pandemic.
Civil Aviation Spokesman Abdul Sattar Khokhar has confirmed that a special flight if a foreign airline will bring the stranded Pakistanis home from the Thai capital. The flight had a one-time permission to enter Pakistan.
The flight will land at Islamabad at 10:20 pm on Saturday night with all 160 stranded passengers on board.
