Passengers protest as PIA flight from Jeddah to Sialkot landed in Karachi

KARACHI (Dunya News) – Passengers on early Saturday morning protested severely against Pakistan International Airlines (PIA) as its flight PK-747 bound for Sialkot from Jeddah was landed in Karachi instead. Passengers refused to step off the plane in protest.
According to the irate passengers, the flight was already suffering from a six and a half hour delay from Jeddah after which the landing in Karachi became an even bigger nuisance.
PIA administration has stated that the aircraft was landed due to bad weather conditions. However, sources say that the flight Captain’s duty timing had finished and he simply landed the plane in Karachi and went home.
The rest of the crew then proceeded to switching off the air conditioning and then left as well due to which some of the passengers suffered loss of consciousness and sickness.
