ISLAMABAD: Pakistan International Airlines (PIA) has reduced fares on flights from Karachi to Jeddah and Madinah by 30 percent, effective immediately, a spokesperson said on Monday.
One-way fares will now be Rs56,000, including tax, while return fares will be Rs88,000, also inclusive of tax.
The discounted fares will be available for booking until August 31.
“Discounted fare tickets can be issued till August 31,” the spokesperson said. “Travel on discounted fare is limited till September 30.”
The move coincides with the ongoing Umrah season, which started in July. Umrah is a voluntary Islamic pilgrimage to Saudi Arabia that can be performed at any time of the year.
PIA introduced direct Umrah flights from Quetta and Faisalabad to Jeddah last month to facilitate pilgrims.
