The pattern of how bad the situation in Pakistan has become, is seen from time to time. Now a case of arbitrariness of a Pakistan pilot in air travel has come to the fore. In the middle of a Pakistan International Airlines (PIA) flight, the pilot refused to fly the plane citing the end of his shift. This caused a stir among the passengers.
A Pakistan International Airlines plane (flight number PK-9754) took off from Saudi Arabia’s capital Riyadh for Pakistan’s capital Islamabad last day. Meanwhile, the plane had to land in Dammam due to bad weather. Meanwhile, when it came to fly again from Dammam to Islamabad, the Pakistani pilot refused to fly the plane citing the end of his shift. Thus, due to the pilot’s refusal in the middle of the journey, the situation there became uncomfortable. The enraged passengers became enraged and refused to alight from the plane.
Passengers said that Pakistan International Airlines should have made proper arrangements in advance to deal with such situations. Later the airport security forces had to be called to bring the situation under control. In this regard, the spokesperson of Pakistan International Airlines said that proper rest of the pilots is necessary for the safety of the passengers. Ensuring this, arrangements were made to take the said aircraft from Dammam to Islamabad.
