According to News, the European Aviation Safety Agency (EASA) is anticipated to make an announcement today about the continuation of flights by Pakistan International Airlines (PIA) and other airlines to Europe.
2020 saw the suspension of PIA’s flying operations by the UK and numerous other EU nations on doubts over the validity of pilot licenses.
A team from the European Aviation Safety Agency (EASA) recently visited Pakistan to evaluate the CAA and PIA in relation to a number of areas, such as airworthiness, licensing, flight safety, and standards.
The group conveyed contentment with the protocols implemented by PIA and CAA.
Moreover, a four-person security assessment team from the UK Department for Transport (UK-DfT) has determined that the security procedures followed at the Islamabad International Airport are adequate.
The airport’s passenger handling, crew, luggage delivery, vehicle screening, and security systems for both planes and cargo were all evaluated by the UK inspectors.
ASF officials trained the British team on a range of security procedures, including crew, baggage delivery, passenger management, vehicle screening, and additional steps for flights to the UK.
