Private airlines and Pakistan International Airlines (PIA) have drastically raised their domestic flight fares.
Due to the impending Christmas, winter holidays, and New Year’s Eve, the tickets have increased in price significantly.
The enormous disparity between supply and demand, according to insiders, is the fundamental cause of the tickets’ escalating costs.
Additionally, there is a sharp rise in the cost of international airline tickets.
According to the sources, the cost of a PIA flight from Karachi to Islamabad has risen to Rs 36,000 for one-way tickets and to Rs 71,000 for round-trip tickets.
Similar to this, Air Blue’s one-way cost from Karachi to Islamabad has increased to Rs 35,000 now.
Serene Air has increased the cost of its one-way tickets from Karachi to Islamabad by 38,000 and 60,000 rupees, respectively.
One-way tickets on Air Sial cost Rs. 45,000 from Karachi to Islamabad, while return tickets now cost Rs. 80,000.
The Civil Aviation Authority (CAA) did not successfully balance the cost of flights.
Due to this circumstance, the passengers are quite concerned.
However, it is anticipated that prices would considerably decline during the Christmas and winter break.
For the second day in a row, the severe fog in several places across the nation disrupted the aircraft schedules leaving Karachi’s Jinnah Terminal.
The sources said that because of thick fog, flights leaving for a number of destinations throughout the nation on Thursday morning had to be rescheduled from the airport in Karachi.
