Currently, PIA operates a weekly flight on the Islamabad-Beijing-Islamabad route, offering essential connectivity every Sunday. This discounted fare provides a timely opportunity for students to either visit their families during the summer break or return home after completing their studies.
Before this announcement, PIA had already set a high standard by offering a 27% discount on fares for students traveling to China. Furthermore, the airline had demonstrated its goodwill by reducing economy and executive economy class fares by 20% on domestic flights during Eid ul Fitr.
This strategic move by PIA is expected to provide significant benefits to a large number of Pakistani students who travel to China annually for advanced studies. The discount initiative highlights the national carrier’s steadfast support for the student community, emphasizing accessibility and affordability in their educational pursuits.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row]
