Well, it’s my personal opinion of about PIA. PIA can be in ranking position 01. If the serving staff taking sincere interest on their Job but sorry to say that none of them they are sincere with their Job. Secondly the attitude towards their passengers is very unavoidable. They don’t treat their passengers in a well manner. They treat only HIFI personality only not each and every every passengers holding PIA documents, which is very unfair. Dress discrimination is 90% involved in PIA customer handling. Otherwise PIA can the rank of 01.
This is based on only one criteria..therefore irrelevant..
I remember the golden years of PIA. Long time back.
But as overseas Pakistani I gave a shot to PIA on Toronto/Karachi Toronto got bitterly disappointed on inflight service including the badly used seats & toilets.
I think the way Jinnah Air is being commended. The government should give that chance to represent Pakistan, internationally.
