Pakistan International Airlines (PIA) has grounded two of its three Boeing 737 air-planes, badly impairing the flight operation.
According to reports, only one Boeing 737 is working and the remaining two have been grounded off the service owing to technical glitches.
It should be mentioned that the green flag carrier has taken three Boeing 737 off operation earlier; hence the domestic flights and Middle East operation will be affected, sources said.
PIA is operating its schedule based on less than 15 aircrafts, although on paper it has a fleet of 38, courtesy the massive corruption by the likes of Aijaz Haroon, Nadeem Yusafzai, Ahmed Mukhtar, Fazalulah Pechuha etc.
PIA must be privatised even if its on by 50% shares, Government should walk away from running businesses. Thats the only long run solution for PIA!
What PIA needs is to ground the people running it,they have destroyed the carrier and its reputation,I remember when it was among the best.I flew it few times years ago,the crew(specially the women) are extremely rude and unprofessional,horrible english in International flights.I have not flown PIA Internationally since 1992.
The working 737 will be picked up by new PM as he likes his own plane to shuttle between ISBD and Lahore to play cricket and to eat carrot halwa during the flight.
I hope they resume operations back to normal as it would be a great shame.
