No wonder why PIA incurs huge losses…
No wonder why PIA incurs huge losses and has lost the credibility amongst international as well as local passengers. Blatant breach of safety standards by travelling a lady in the cockpit during take off, flight and landing..... PIA flight PK 456, Skardu to Karachi on 17 April 2024. Safety of flight and passengers was seriously compromised by Protocol or personal relationships when a young lady with long hair, in casual dress, was observed to enter the cockpit of the aeroplane, and remained inside the cockpit during the take off, entire duration of flight, and the landing operations thus by-passing all safety procedures, risking everyone's life, and the property. Flight departure was initially brought forward by 30 minutes but about 15 hours prior to departure it was announced to be late by 5 hours. These 5 hours could not be utilised due to short notice of change. PIA flight PK 455, Karachi to Skardu on 13 April 2024 had schedule changes/delays when initially they announced 30 minutes prior schedule departure and few hours prior departure they announced delay of 2 hours, then 30 minutes and 30 minutes twice, and actual departure was further delayed by another 45 minutes, so total delay of 3H 45M in last few hours of scheduled departure
