Several flights have delayed due to bad weather at many airports including Lahore, Sialkot, Multan and Faisalabad on Thursday.
The Riyadh-Multan flight number PK-730 of Pakistan International Airlines (PIA) landed at Karachi owing to bad weather. The PIA spokesperson said the flight will take off again for Multan getting clearance regarding the weather condition. Passengers are being given facilities by the staff at Karachi airport, said the spokesperson, adding that other passengers must contact through the call centre before arriving at the airport.
Moreover, a flight from Islamabad to Dubai delayed which led the protests of passengers at the airport. The protest has also delayed the departure of other international flights as the passengers gathered around the Civil Aviation Authority (CAA) counters which stopped the boarding process.
The administration summoned officials of Airports Security Force (ASF) to bring the situation under control. The protesting passengers demanded the authorities for permitting the flight to take off or to allow them to stay at the hotel.
