Bhoja Air: First flight takes off today
First commercial flight of Bhoja Air will take off from the Jinnah International Airport, Karachi for Lahore on Tuesday (today). The airline is re-launching itself and will connect Karachi to Sukkur, Multan, Lahore and Islamabad.
Bhoja Air Managing Director Arshad Jalil, in a press release, said, “Aviation industry in Pakistan requires many more carriers to facilitate communications and connect Pakistan together. Bhoja Air aims to provide rejuvenated experience and affordable value for passengers by focusing on punctual schedules, in-flight menu and appealing services for the ease of passengers.”

Dear Sir,
Great news for the passengers for relaunching of a Bhoja Air, I think after 11 years with the new hopes and great courage. Our all great wishes for the Bhoja airline and hope that they will be a very productive in their competitors. Economical will be for the passengers.
It is good news for us to increase busniss and man power promot in the country hope that more bsns man wil do work here and i requiest to govt that give the secuirty and peice to our bisns man so thx.
I trust that any passengers who had paid for Bhoja Air tickets but not availed them have been compensated.
Their fares currently are Rs 7000 one way from Karachi to Lahore, so that's not bad at all. Cheaper than Shaheen even. I hope they stay low so that others are forced to reduce their prices as well.
I would like congretulate managment of Bhoja Air for restartup.I hope will compete the market in Pakistan and later in Middleast near future.It should not down priced but provide on ground/on board good service.It should compete long haul meal fre night service with only 20pct profit base.
I hope new airline companies help in curbing the current practices of the cartel (PIA, Airblue and Shaheen Airlines). Instead of becoming the part of exploiting consumers, new airlines showuld increase the competition among the airlines.
