In a recent development, the Civil Aviation Authority (CAA) has introduced a fresh set of charges that will affect all passengers on domestic flights within Pakistan. This announcement, made public on Saturday through an official notification, signifies a change in the aviation landscape.
According to the notification, a fee of PKR 100 will now be applicable to each passenger, earmarked specifically for airport usage across the nation. The CAA has explicitly instructed all domestic airlines, including prominent carriers such as Pakistan International Airlines (PIA), Air Blue, Air Sial, and Fly Jinnah, to ensure the seamless collection of these new charges from their passengers.
Key Highlights of the New Charges:
Uniform Fee Structure: Every passenger boarding a domestic flight will now contribute PKR 100 towards airport charges.
Airlines as Collectors: Airlines operating in the country are tasked with collecting these charges on behalf of the CAA.
With countless individuals traversing various cities via diverse flight options, this adjustment in fees is certain to generate a substantial influx of revenue for the aviation authority.
