Previously, the suspension of flights was until May 13.

Pakistan has extended the suspension of domestic flight operations till May 29 as part of the precautionary measures aimed at combating the spread of the Covid-19 coronavirus.

The previous extension announced by Pakistan’s Aviation Division was effective till May 13.

“As per the government decision, the suspension of domestic flight operations, as effected earlier, has been extended up to Friday, May 29, 2020, at 2359 hours PST,” a spokesman for the Aviation Division said in a statement.

Remaining provisions as applicable to the suspension of domestic flights, reflected in the previous orders, would remain unchanged, he added.

The government had initially suspended all types of domestic scheduled/non scheduled, chartered and private aircraft passenger flight operations on March 26 for a period of one week to contain the spread of Covid-19.

However, the suspension of domestic flights was later extended till May 7 and again till May 10. The suspension was further extended till May 13.
