Written Question

Aviation: Pakistan

Wednesday 12th March 2025

Asked by: Harpreet Uppal (Labour - Huddersfield)

Question to the Department for Transport:

To ask the Secretary of State for Transport, what her planned timetable is for direct flights to resume from the UK to Pakistan.

Answered by Mike Kane - Parliamentary Under-Secretary (Department for Transport)

Pakistan is still on UK Air Safety List and there is a process to follow to come off the Air Safety List. The Department for Transport, along with the UK Civil Aviation Authority continues to engage with the Pakistan Civil Aviation Authority. Responsibility remains with the Pakistan Civil Aviation Authority to ensure it is meeting required safety standards to be delisted and we cannot provide a timeline on this.
