BEIJING, July 2: The Pakistan International Airlines (PIA) will start operating another flight to China on the Islamabad-Urumqi route by the middle of August, twice a week. According to PIA sources, the airline has already set up its office in Urumqi, capital of the Xinjiang Autonomous Region, and is now making necessary arrangements.
Fare on this route will be competitive to facilitate travelling to businessmen, the sources added.
The Xinjiang, China’s western region bordering Pakistan, enjoyed special importance, where the scope of enlarging Sino-Pak socio-economic ties is much bright.—APP
