The government has extended the restricted domestic flight operation for five airports in the country until August 31.

A NOTAM (notice to airmen) issued by the CAA said scheduled and chartered passenger flights will be allowed to operate between Karachi, Lahore, Islamabad, Quetta and Peshawar airports as per established guidelines. However, flights between Islamabad and Gilgit and Skardu will operate as per normal schedule.

Flights from all other airports will remain suspended.
