BRITISH Airways has today announced that it will fly from Heathrow to Islamabad, the capital city of Pakistan, from June 2nd next year.
It is the first time the carrier has flown to #Pakistan in more than a decade. The airline stopped flying to the country after the Marriott hotel in the capital, #Islamabad, was bombed in 2008, killing more than 50 people.
It is a hub for culture with a rich heritage and has an impressive collection of museums, markets, mosques and hiking trails, as well as restaurants which serve a variety of cuisines from local Pakistani dishes to food from around the world.
The airline has a long history of flying to the city and offered its first scheduled flights between London and the Pakistani capital in 1976. Islamabad is one of four long-haul routes being launched by British Airways in 2019, its centenary year.
