we last served the city. As the most populous city in Pakistan, Karachi will be a crucial
gateway to Pakistan and the wider South Asia region. As the only flight connecting
Pakistan with Africa, the planned service to Karachi will have significant contribution in strengthening the diplomatic and economic relations between the two regions.

It will also offer convenient air connectivity to the growing number of Pakistani investors in Africa as well as tourists.”
