In a promising move for Pakistan’s aviation and tourism industries, a new airline, South Air, is preparing to launch, focusing on flights to the picturesque northern regions of the country. The airline is set to improve connectivity by offering two daily flights to popular tourist destinations such as Gilgit, Chitral, and Skardu.
Initially, the airline will operate flights from Islamabad and Lahore, providing easier access to the scenic landscapes of Pakistan’s north. This development is expected to cater to both local and international tourists, enhancing travel experiences to these often hard-to-reach areas.

South Air will begin its operations with two turboprop aircraft, which are ideal for the terrain and shorter runways in the region. The airline aims to bridge the gap in accessibility to these remote yet stunning locations, making it easier for travelers to explore the natural beauty and cultural heritage of northern Pakistan.
This initiative is anticipated to contribute to the growth of the tourism sector by attracting more visitors to these destinations, while also promoting economic development in the local communities. With its focus on reliable and convenient air travel, South Air is set to play a vital role in boosting tourism in the country.
