PIA decides to overhaul its Airbus fleet

The Pakistan International Airlines (PIA) has decided to overhaul its aircraft.

It has decided to install spacious and comfortable seats in five Airbus 320 aircraft. The administration of the state airline has issued instructions to complete the process on a priority basis within four months.

The national flag carrier also decided to change the seats of its special Boeing 777 long-range aircraft operating in Canada.

It also granted in-principle approval for the functionality and improvement of the in-flight entertainment system in these aircraft.

Funds have also been arranged for seats and entertainment while the project will be completed on a fast-track basis.

The state airline issued instructions to initiate work on the plan to provide an in-flight local internet connection to the fleet.

Four Airbus 320 aircraft are being added to the national flag carrier’s fleet this year. Two of these have already joined the fleet, while the remaining two will be added in August.
