I wonder what they ask for in PPR1 and PPR2, I know these are two different steps - for PPR2 they ask for passport submission but can someone explain PPR1 please. Thanks
PPR1 step has been eliminated this year.

AFAIK In PPR1 they ask for a copy of your passport and want you to send it to LVO, in PPR2 they ask you to send your original passport to CHC Islamabad for visa.
Thank you so much, and how long apart PPR1 and PPR2 from each other?

Jinnah hospital in Lahore. just take your original Passport.. and go n ask for polio certificate.. hopefully everything will be done in 30 mins max.
PP copy is sufficient.
It can be done in Services Hospital too.

mohsingrewal said:

From a week to few weeks. In PPR1 they ask for updated Information chart and scanned copies of PP(s).
But LVO is skipping PPR1 now a days.

I don't think we received the AOR. We just received the SA.
Mostly people get SA letter/email only.

I wanted to book a flight to Karachi for my flight in April but the ticket cost $2300 CAD with PIA.
So I did a search with expedia.ca and skyscanner.ca to see the airlines, cost and layovers.
Then whichever appealed to me, I went directly to the airline website, searched for the same flight and then booked.
It might cost a little more or the same, but I don't like dealing with booking agencies.
If there's an issue, I prefer to deal directly with the airline.
I booked Turkish Airlines for $1250 CAD for return ticket.
Some people may prefer another airline which they see in their initial search.

Try cheapOair.ca , my parents just came in from Pakistan last week and took KLM KHI Abu Dhabi Amsterdam Calgary , it was a nice experience for them and was pretty cheap, I got around $200 less from travel agents around Canada quoted.

One way cost was $1260.00 CAD , you just have to look for good flights and deals, every minute and every hour deals and prices are changing..!!

And the cheapest I got quoted for the same flight by a travel agent in Toronto was $1365 CAD.

What was horrible?

I should also mention the ticket for Turkish airlines was round-trip, not one way.
I remember last year when I took PIA there was some kid crying out loud for half of the journey.
