Shaheen Air to bring back stranded passengers from Guangzhou tonight

Author: Web Desk

GUANGZHOU: The Pakistani citizens stranded on Guangzhou Airport because of the unavailability of their flight booked on Shaheen Air will be brought back today.

Almost 300 passengers have been stranded on the Guangzhou airport since 29th July. The Shaheen Air flight was cancelled by the Civil Aviation Authority (CAA) after both parties refused to reach an agreement over debt payments amounting to 1.5 billion PKR. As a result, all Shaheen Air flights were cancelled by the CAA, exept their Hajj flights.

The Supreme Court took notice of the case yesterday and has ordered the owner of Shaheen Air to appear before the court on 7th Court. The regional director of Shaheen Air was present at court today and he said that all airlines except the Saudi Airlines had been cancelled at the Guangzhou Airport and that only Shaheen Air has a flight from Guangzhou to Lahore.
