Launching Lahore flights
Starting from this month, a new service between London and Lahore will strengthen IAG Cargo's existing presence in Pakistan, which since 2019 has also included flights to Islamabad, which resumed service on 14 September operating daily between the two capital cities.
IAG Cargo’s global network will allow customers seeking to transport essential goods from the region, such as textiles, leather, and surgical goods, access to markets in Europe, North America and elsewhere.
The route will be operated by British Airways B787-8 wide-body. Christian Turner, the British high commissioner to Pakistan: "The first ever British Airways flights to Lahore is a sign of confidence in Pakistan, and the deepening ties between our two countries. I hope it will open up even more opportunities for business links." (ah)
