What airlines are good .... i ve heard that PIA has a very bad flight experience.....
My medical is expiring on 10 April so i ll b rushing real fast once i get my visa done.
Well my advise is to get the fares of 3 airlines i.e. Emirates, Etihad and Turkish Airlines. These 3 have excellent service (and the fares are also not too much different from PIA but the services are very very much better) and the only difference with PIA is that don't drop you to Canada directly.
Here, let me give examples of few of my relatives who have traveled with PIA from Canada. The first one's flight was delayed by 16 hours (more then the whole duration of PIA's direct flight from Pakistan to Canada). Another one got a delay of 12 hours. On the other hand, those who have traveled with Emirates, Etihad or Turkish Airlines, there only botheration was to stay 4-5 hours on Abu Dhabi, Dubai or Istanbul for their next flight otherwise there overall experiences was 5 star. If you calculate the duration of an indirect flight from these airlines and assumes the same delay from PIA, then you will reach Canada in lesser time despite the fact that you will be on-board on an indirect flight so whats the benefit of PIA? Now, in the light of these experiences, the decision is yours.
