Detours: Diverted flights become bane for residents of K-P, FATA
While Passenger Load of Pashtun Labour from FATA and Pakhtunkhwa is Highest in magnitude as Demonstrated by everyday Flights of Saudia , Qatar , Emirates , Ethihad , Air Arabia , and Shaheen Airlines daily one or two Flight Direct from Peshawar to gulf States and Also to Other Parts of Pakistan , PIA has only one Flight to Karachi and one to Lahore in whole week of 7 days , it is deliberatively Detouring the Load of Peshawar Airport which has more Passengers to Islamabad ( A small city of 1 Million People as compared to 100-200 Million People dependent on Peshawar Airport of FATA, Pakhtunhwa and Afghanistan as well .
Why PIA is trying to Bankrupt itself But denying a large Population of Pashtuns and trying to deliberatively Deceive people ????? While in just year Shaheen Airline has about 40 Aircraft PIA has Shrunk to 20 in Same Year , Because of Such Policies .

PESHAWAR:
The miseries of residents of Khyber-Pakhtunkhwa and Fata coming from overseas have further multiplied with the disruption of routine operations of international airlines at Shaheed Benazir Bhutto International Airport due to rallies and demonstrations in Islamabad.
Officials of Pakistan International Airlines (PIA) and other airlines confirmed that several flights coming to Islamabad from the Gulf region have been diverted to Allama Iqbal International Airport during the last three days. Officials and workers at Peshawar airport also confirmed the cancellation of flights from various foreign countries to Islamabad.
Since June 24, when unidentified militants opened fire at a PIA plane landing in Peshawar, a number of international airlines had either suspended or minimised operations at Bacha Khan International Airport. Due to this, people from K-P and Fata who work in the Gulf region were being directed to Islamabad for their flights.
Passengers from the Potohar region and the rest of Punjab and Kashmir have also been affected due to the suspension of air operations. A number of Pakistanis said on social media websites that they have been stranded at international airports for hours due to the cancellation of flights to Islamabad and Lahore airports.
