Dubai budget airline suspends flights to three Pakistani cities

Dubai’s budget airline has suspended its flights to Lahore, Islamabad and Peshawar until October 26, 2026.

According to UAE officials, the low-cost airline stopped flights to the three major Pakistani cities due to “operational reasons.”

However, flights to Karachi, Sialkot, Multan, Faisalabad and Quetta are continuing as usual.

Officials said that affected passengers are being given refunds. Travelers with tickets are also being offered the option to rebook their flights with other airlines.

The suspension comes after Gulf air operations were affected following the Iran war.

Authorities also said that passenger traffic at Dubai Airport dropped by 66 percent in March.

Despite the suspension by the budget airline, other UAE airlines are continuing their flights to Pakistan.
