The national airline of Azerbaijan launched direct flights from Baku to Karachi today. There will be two weekly flights on this route, on Thursdays and Sundays.
The first flight will land in Karachi, and Azerbaijan’s ambassador, Khazar Farhadov, will be there to greet it.
This evening also marks the departure of the inaugural flight from Karachi to Baku, in addition to the arrival of the flight from Baku.
Azerbaijan Airlines said last month that it would be growing its network and flight operations in Pakistan.
Aviation insiders have verified that Azerbaijan Airlines is preparing to launch service to Karachi in the coming month of April.
In addition to its current services in Islamabad and Lahore, the airline plans to launch its Karachi route on April 18, with the inaugural flight anticipated to depart on that date.
Azerbaijan Airlines has been given permission to operate flights on the Karachi route, according to sources within the Civil Aviation Authority (CAA).
Following a bilateral agreement between the two nations, Azerbaijan Airlines has been given permission to extend its operations in Pakistan.
