Utter carelessness of PIA crew who forget 300 passengers in Jeddah

In a case of sheer carelessness shown by the Pakistan International Airlines administration, the crew of the PIA plane which was bringing passengers from Jeddah to Lahore forgot them in a hotel, reported 24NewsHD TV channel on Saturday.

According to details, PIA flight No PK 760 was supposed to take off on September 28. But due to some technical glitch, the plane could not be taken off. Consequently, the passengers’ stay was arranged at the Grand Shah Hotel in Jeddah.

But three days have gone and 300 passengers are still staying at the hotel.

The stranded passengers have appealed to the PIA authorities to bring them back by an alternative flight.
