The inaugural flight, scheduled to arrive from Kuala Lumpur at 7:30 PM on Saturday, will be greeted with a ceremonial water salute, symbolizing the warm welcome extended to the airline and its passengers.
To mark this momentous occasion, the Malaysian Consul General and civil aviation officials will be present at Karachi’s Jinnah International Airport to personally welcome the passengers aboard Batik Air’s first flight.
