The Pakistan Civil Aviation Authority (CAA) has denied issuing any statement regarding the resumption of flights to European countries. PCCA further added that any media reports on this issue should be considered mere speculation.
According to the aviation authority, a high-level delegation comprising PCAA senior officials, led by the Secretary Aviation/DG CAA, left for Brussels on May 12 to attend the meeting of the Air Safety Committee regarding the resumption of flights of Pakistani airlines. The important meeting is set to be held today.
“The outcome of the meeting will be communicated by the European Commission in due course,” the PCAA further said. It advised that such speculation should be avoided in the interest of the country.

Recently, several media outlets reported that Pakistan International Airlines (PIA) will resume its direct flight operations to Paris in June and to England in August this year. EASA had imposed a ban on the flight operation of PIA to Europe following the death of nearly 100 people in a PIA plane crash in Karachi and the fake pilot licence scandal in 2020.
