Comment by an Anonymous Flier on Multan International Airport, Pakistan:

I believe there is nothing to say about its appreciation but i would suggest it should be international in real as i don't think any international flights are flying from Multan. I think the reason being is there is no load of people flying to or from Multan. But being a city that is famous for mangoes specially and for it's sweet called sohan halwa there has need to make it international so that we could transport them easily without any hassle of sending them to big cities like lahore, islamabad or karachi. Finally i would like to say Multan is the biggest city in the southern Punjab. Surrounded by many well known cities like Bahawalpur,khanewal,muzafargarh,D.G khan and many others so taking all those cities into notice and looking at their population we should think there needs to have some real International Airport. So the people will not have to travel all the way to Lahore, islamabad or karachi and they will fly right from their neighbouring city.

Zooming in, I can see that this paved stretch clearly has runway markings and numbers (18/36), so I think it's in the correct location.

Thank you for the feedback. OurAirports is a community-maintained site, like Wikipedia, so we're always looking for better information. Do you happen to know the correct location for Okara Airport? Or is this one of the situations (common in some other countries) where a stretch of highway is designated as an emergency landing strip?

Comment by an Anonymous Flier on Sialkot Airport, Pakistan:

I won't recomment to use Sialkot airport at all. I have travelled to and from Sialkot airport 3 times and each experience is worse than other. Staff of sialkot airport openly ask for bribe... all the staff is corrupt. They open the luggage and ask the passenger to leave the items with them or pay a specific amount without any reason.

I absoloutely hate Sialkot Airport and now I have decided to use Lahore airport instead.

Lets name it 'Shaheed Muhajireen International Airport' in the memory of those refugees who lost their lives on their way to Pakistan in 1947. They left their neighbourhoods, their properties, their businesses all in support of an idea: PAKISTAN.

And I am not a muhajir; my family was always in these parts. But who is more Pakistani than those who sacrificed and jeopardised everything that could be of value (relatives, loved ones and wealth) in order to be Pakistanis.

It is an excellent location, just 4 km from Islamabad Interchange of Lahore-Islamabad Motorway M-2, some 20 km from Zero Point Islamabad and Saddar Rawalpindi, that means only 20–25 minutes driving time of through network of motorways and highways. Being right on Motorway it is hardly at three hours drive from Lahore, Peshawar and Faisalabad, can be used in emergency / inclement weather

Comment by an Anonymous Flier on Benazir Bhutto International Airport, Pakistan:

What an experience at this airport - I had heard other travellers experience so I put myself through it to get my own findings. Arriving at the airport no bad at all, ( As I had no food in my suitcase or valuable items. ) Departing however was a disgrace, First set of checking staff, asked me if I had any english notes and if not my suitcases would get opened. ( thats said to every person to get them all panicked ) I had 3 kids with me so didn't have the patience to tolerate this kind of talk from a man who was probably getting paid less then me. I told him to go ahead and open my suitcases. well as soon as that was said, he then instructed a woman staff member to go through my cases and slowly moved onto his next target And even after that every check that was done the staff have probably never craked a smile in the last 20 years. It;s obviously very hard for certain people of a certain degree to get to the grasp that, we too earn for a living, we work day and night and then pay for a ticket and fly over, its hard explaining that to humans that think money grows on

trees. Money talks not the truth...... now I know why such a word as corrupt is used.....

[OPFA] "Upgradation of Faisalabad Airport" by Anonymous Flier

Sat, 19 Dec 2009 11:54:47 -0500

Comment by an Anonymous Flier on Faisalabad International Airport, Pakistan:

It is very amazing for the people who live in Faisalabad or abroad (related to Faisalabad) that why could not Faisalabad Airport could be upgraded inspite of having lot of potential. Faisalabad is a third biggest city of Pakistan & well known as Manchester of Asia in the world. It has population of almost 5 million people inwhich a large number of people works in many countries of the world & earning foreign exchange for their country. Beside it, Faisalabad is a center of activities related to export business. So as a large number of Faisalabadis have to travel for gulf, Europe, Canada and USA. PIA & other air companies want to start international flights from Faisalabad but unfortunately infrastructure for international operation is not available. So there is urgent need of a world class airport in Faisalabad. So that proper international operation could be started from here.
