Congrats Amahmoo!

The International PIA is ok. Domestic ones are having issues. If they were to do, what they are doing with International Flights, they would be fined, actually I think UK already fined them a few million of running on Desi Standard Time late last year.

1) Is it safe? Yes,
2) Reliable / peace of mind No!
3) Cheap? By couple of Hundred but discount is countered by point 2.
4) Direct? Only if you flight on the specific day for the city of your destination.

Cheers,

CB

Thanks for the detailed answer! :)

Hopefully soon Insha Allah
Dear amnafahad4life,

This email indicates that they are doing background check and once that is completed, they will again review your file and probably make a decision. Hopefully this may results in finalization of your application and issuing of PPR and VISA soon.

Pray and hope for the best, and leave everything to ALLAH SWT.

Thanks,

Waqarcan

I have to postpone many things for my business for until I get back from Pakistan.
To have a business is still an advantage over a job while working for yourself rather than working for someone else.
