The aviation industry of Pakistan has witnessed a surge in overflight revenue after a substantial decline in Covid-19 cases following the effective policies of the federal government.
The overflight revenue of the Civil Aviation Authority (CAA) was significantly increased up to Rs30 million per day as the air transportation surged after the reopening of airspace for foreign flights.
According to the CAA spokesperson, the number of foreign flights passing over Pakistan’s airspace has reached more than 350 a day.
During the first week of this month, 1,886 flights have used Pakistan’s airspace including 1,220 from Karachi region and 666 from Lahore region, whereas, effective policies for the aviation sector as per guidelines of the World Health Organization (WHO) led to an increase in landing and take-off of aircraft of foreign airlines, added the spokesperson.
