Serene Airlines has temporarily suspended all its flight operations following the Pakistan Civil Aviation Authority’s (PCAA) decision to suspend its Air Operator’s Certificate (AOC). The airline confirmed the development in an official statement on Saturday.
The airline assured passengers that safety and public trust remain its highest priorities. Serene Airlines described the suspension as a temporary measure due to “unforeseen circumstances” and emphasized that its team is working with authorities to resume services quickly.
According to the PCAA, Serene Airlines no longer meets the safety requirements necessary for flight operations. All aircraft in the airline’s fleet have been declared unfit to fly. The authority has directed the airline to return its Air Operator’s Certificate immediately, citing non-compliance with aviation regulations.
A spokesperson for Serene Airlines said the management is fully engaged with the PCAA to resolve the suspension. The airline requested passengers to remain patient during this period, assuring them that restoring operations is a top priority.
One of Serene Airlines’ aircraft remains grounded in Saudi Arabia due to a bird strike. The airline has requested permission for the plane to return so that stranded passengers can continue their journeys without further delays.
The suspension affects both domestic and international flights. Serene Airlines confirmed that it is taking all necessary steps to comply with regulations and resume services as soon as possible.
The PCAA reiterated that all airlines must maintain strict safety standards. Authorities warned that failure to meet these standards could lead to further penalties or extended suspension of operations.
Travelers who rely on Serene Airlines for scheduled flights were urged to monitor official channels for updates. The airline also emphasized that passenger safety, comfort, and trust remain at the center of its operations during this temporary disruption.
