Lahore:
Air traffic returned to normal following recent disturbances caused by the Pakistani-Indian conflict. All international airlines have resumed operations via Pakistan airspace – with the exception of Indian carriers, who remain limited.
Speaking of the media of the Lahore Press Club, director of public relations at Pakistan Airport Authority (PAA), Saifullah, said that international airlines had temporarily reachable flights during the recent climbing but had since returned to their regular roads.
He confirmed that, according to the government directive, Pakistan airspace will remain closed to Indian airlines until June 24.
Skardu airport is upgraded while a new system is introduced to Chitral and Gilgit airport. As part of a new system, theft operations will continue regardless of the weather conditions, said the director of the PAA.
He said that bird strike incidents fell 15% in Karachi, while 36 type incidents were reported to Lahore.
The PAA official said that the authority will put a campaign in collaboration with local governments to eliminate organizing during Eidul Azha.
He said there was a policy to outsource airports.
Meanwhile, the capital Development Authority (CDA) imposed a ban on flying drones, kite, pigeons and other objects around Islamabad airport.
The restriction is imposed as a result of bird strike incidents, which damage planes, and will remain in force for a month. The areas around the Noor Khan air base and the Qasim air base will also be under restriction.
Sub-commissioner Hasan Waqar Cheema published a notification under article 144. In addition, there is also a prohibition of air dismissal for a month.
