BEIJING, Feb 1 (APP): Pakistan International Airlines (PIA) has further reduced round trip fare for passengers travelling on its flights operating from China to Pakistan with immediate effect.
The new round trip fare from Beijing-Islamabad-Beijing and Chengdu-Islamabad-Chengdu will now be RMB 7,915. It will greatly facilitate those passengers living in China who plan to travel to Pakistan for business, work or to meet their families during holidays, a senior official told APP here on Wednesday.
