2 Stars only for the food
My flight was from MANCHESTER TO LAHORE DIRECT This airline needs to show more respect and dignity to its customers. As soon as we boarded the plane and it took off, the lights were dimmed down for the first 2 hours of flying! No refreshing towels, nothing for the kids. A big negative was that the entertainment system remained down, even for business class! NO FILMS/MUSIC/GAMES NOTHING. JUST A BLANK SCREEN FOR 8 HOURS STRAIGHT! There was no explanation as to why this was. Reading lots of the other reviews it seems like a regular thing on their flights that there will be no entertainment. Even in their newer aircrafts, which I was on. Food was served well into the flight which was OK. You get rice, daal and chicken or lamb on the side. As soon as you have ate things are quickly wrapped up and yet again all the lights are turned off! I'm not a harsh reviewer but I was really disappointed and bored on this flight. If you want to get from A to B direct and want to catch up on sleep then this airline is brilliant for you. I paid a lot of money for this ticket and really regret it. Even if your entertainment systems are down just give an honest explanation and have something else in place. I mean we couldn't even use our mobile phones as there are no charging points on the aircraft. I will not travel PIA ever again.
