It was shown on big signs, and repeated by the staff throughout your approach to security….And yes, this does mean on connecting flights, having to pull out the liquid contents of your amenity bags and stick them in the clear plastic. Would PIA have bought them second-hand?Taking a steamship across the North Atlantic in February would be too awesome. Not. An enclosed aircraft cabin and passenger next to you drinking, is not an ideal travel situation for those like me who actually feel nauseated even by the smell of alcohol. Why? Some ppl do get lucky (aka Trump) and some people just work hard. I failed at both the car manufacturer’s spelling and being the person Dan calls to go bowling with… in Vienna, Mumbai, or Sydney. That has allowed me to get caught up on work (including my latest trip report) and sleep, which was needed after last week's insanity. Third World – this is easy: every single last one of them.Kudos to you Ben, while I may one day book a Saudia flight (if I stay out in the sun too long) you’d have to pay me to fly PIA The dessert definitely looks like Phirni and not Kheer!
As we climbed out the lead flight attendant made an announcement apologizing proactively that many of the seats and entertainment systems were broken, and that they’re working on updating their fleet with more modern products. Let me get you a different blanket.” I’m not sure if they reuse blankets for transit passengers, or what…I was surprised that business class stayed mostly empty throughout the boarding process, until about 10 minutes before the door closed, at which point a couple dozen business class passengers showed up. This site is for entertainment purposes only. @Emily Blackburn: Ever hear of a sense of humor? )Dude, I am not even sure I understand what you have written… but please share with me whatever it is you have been smoking….On a more relevant note, honesty cannot say that the flight reviewed here was any worse than my flight between CDG and CVG last week on DL.You spelt Jetta correctly, but I am pretty sure you spelt “Volkswagen” incorrectly Love the puns – not really sure how it’s exactly directed though – sarcasm I assume? However, once an airline is top notch, it’s hard to maintain.
The inflight services of PIA include entertainment like TV, access to internet, music and games and books such as Humsafar (Urdu for "travel companion"). Based on the number of passengers with transit cards in their hands, it seemed like we were among the only passengers originating our travels in Manchester (which isn’t really surprising, given that PIA only operates this flight in one direction anyway).At this point the crew was still sitting at the gate. @LUCKY: Thanks a lot to OMAAT for making such connections possible!Mr Palangio: Looks like you are among the privileged very few. with just some minor flaws, probably thinks your blog is a joke and you a fool who can’t discern.And Lucky why do you keep calling the airline Pakistan? She offered us apple juice, mango juice, or water.We spoke to Kiran briefly, and she explained that they were on a 10 day trip, as they were flying from Lahore to Manchester, had a four day layover, then had a three day layover in New York, and then flew nonstop back to Lahore. (I greatly dislike the TSA)Have to agree with the first post from David, not inspiring at all. it has an acronym PIA for a reason, would you call KLM as Dutch in your review repeatedly? Marachino cherries. All it took was a slow afternoon at work, reading Lucky’s latest posts, (now my favorite travel blogger,) being challenged by how to spell my car manufacturer’s name correctly, and a sadly embarrassing attempt to become Dan’s best friend so that I could ride on private planes for free. @Pat S: those would be included to my no-fly list which already includes UA, AA, and DL…although I wouldn’t classify them as a “First” world airline if a first world airline is supposed to provide high quality of service and reliability I find it funny that people still use “first,” “second,” and “third” world to describe the socio-economic status of countries (they are condescending and rather outdated terms to define the socio-economic status for foreign nations).I agree with Donna! If this is due to some Pakistani regulations, it’s still unfortunate that they use this quality of plastic cutlery, since it was the cheapest and flimsiest type imaginable.All the service was done by cart, so the crew first offered the choice of three types of salad, including what was described as fresh, greek, or waldorf.I selected the fresh salad, which was served wrapped.
Visit the website to find out if your organization is listed – if your’s is not listed, we can get it registered with some paperwork.
I don’t think Heathrow is that bad, but Manchester is just…just…awful.Have you flown from any other UK airports, like Gatwick? PIA offers Business Class, Economy Plus+ and Economy cabins to its travellers, though most international flights are equipped with only the Business and Economy Class. PIA’s 777 business class The thing about “national airlines” flying to New York is that while it’s something that is often done for prestige, in reality it’s rarely a money maker. I have posted this question on askLucky and no response either.
