Emirates Airlines announced on Wednesday that it will resume its operations to and from Peshawar from July 24 (tomorrow) while Etihad Airways will resume its flight from the city from August 1.
The first Emirates flight will arrive in Peshawar at 7am Thursday after remaining suspended for about a month in the wake of an attack on PIA 756 flight on June 25 which left a woman dead and other two crew members injured.
Recently, Qatar Airlines had also resumed flight operations at Peshawar airport from July 3.
Six international airlines, including Etihad, Gulf, Saudi Airlines, Emirates Airlines, Qatar and Air Arabia, are operating from Peshawar airport, mostly carrying the working class of Khyber Pakhtunkhwa to Middle Eastern countries and other destinations.
Apart from Air Arabia, all five international airlines had announced suspension of their operations from Peshawar following the July 25 incident.
