PAKISTAN INTERNATIONAL AIRLINES, in what must be described as an unusual move, has introduced a twice weekly service from Barcelona to Chicago. The airline operates a two-class Boeing 777-300ER for the 9hrs 30mins flight. The airline also flies twice a week from Barcelona to Lahore (and on to Karachi), and twice per week to Islamabad. Barcelona is gaining popularity as a hub, its 24/7 operation under-utilised. Current long haul operators include American Airlines, Delta, US Airways, Avianca, to be shortly followed by Air Canada and Qatar Airways. www.piac.com.pk
