In a significant development for aviation enthusiasts and travelers, Fly Jinnah, a cost-effective airline backed by the Lakson Group and Air Arabia Group of the UAE, has been granted permission to expand its services to international routes. The government’s decision, as announced by the caretaker Information Minister, Murtaza Solangi, comes after a recommendation from the Aviation Ministry and approval from the Federal Cabinet.
Fly Jinnah currently operates domestic flights connecting major cities across Pakistan, such as Karachi, Lahore, Islamabad, Peshawar, and Quetta.

Additionally, Fly Jinnah might extend its services to countries like Afghanistan, Bangladesh, Iraq, Malaysia, Thailand, and Turkiye.
This expansion not only enhances travel options for passengers but also contributes to the growth of the aviation industry, further cementing Fly Jinnah’s position as a prominent player in the airline sector.
