PPP leader Sharmila Faruqi had a very bad flight experience where she saw a jam-packed flight despite the coronavirus guidelines for air travel by the NCOC, reported 24NewsHD TV channel on Sunday.
Sharmila Tweeted, “Jam packed Airblue Airline flight. Not a single seat vacant.”
She even criticised the ‘inflated’ price of the airline and said, “One way ticket Lahore to Karachi 23k super blackmailing.”
Recently, the Civil Aviation Authority of Pakistan (CAA) in a NOTAM issued and informed the concerned foreign airlines to limit international flights to 20 percent in the latest step to stop virus intake from other countries.
