chewy Posted February 26, 2017 Posted February 26, 2017 http://www.hindustantimes.com/world-news/pakistani-airliner-flies-to-saudi-arabia-with-passengers-standing-in-aisle/story-0xtuV9Fa0x8ynHY5GrNmiK.html Quote Pakistan’s state-run airline is investigating how seven passengers travelled from Karachi to Saudi Arabia while standing in the aisle of a flight, which has been described by authorities as a serious breach of air safety regulations. The passengers were allowed to board the Pakistan International Airline flight to Medina on January 20 even though every seat was filled. The Boeing 777 had a total capacity of 409 seats, including jump seats for the staff, but carried 416 passengers. The additional passengers were issued hand-written boarding passes, instead of computer-generated ones, for the three-hour flight. The flight’s computer-generated list, provided to the aircraft crew by ground traffic staff, did not mention the seven passengers. Pakistan leading the way for innovation in budget airlines "Hand-written boarding passes"..... velu 1

BeautifulGame Posted February 26, 2017 Posted February 26, 2017 I am surprised the passangers didn't protest .
zen Posted February 26, 2017 Posted February 26, 2017 And later it was discovered that one of the pilots was a local bus driver
Sajid_Rana Posted February 27, 2017 Posted February 27, 2017 I dont mind standing on a short light if the fare is really cheap. This could be new tactic for airlines to make more money.

OK. lol, technical failure, PIA has been escorted so many times because of terrorist activities on board their plane, only last week a PIA was escorted away from London Heathrow Airport to another landing strip to arrest a terror suspect. PIA is just another extension of Pakisan's terror exporting industry.

Err, this kind of technical failures/incidents have happened to much better airlines than PIA. But only PIA and African airlines banned by the FAA have flouted safety rules this flagrantly. Like i said, you are comparing a straight up, operation protocol failure, from multiple levels of the PIA administration, jeopardizing passenger safety wilfully and via SEVERAL layers of the administration (from ground staff to crew), to a human error in tuning in to the correct channel. And the article itself said, that the problem was resolved by the time the jets were scrambled. You are pussing-out. But thats what i guess Pakistanis do to keep their fantasy of a successful nation alive.
