Airblue's passenger receives expired food in Flight

Airblue, one of Pakistan’s leading domestic airlines, was caught serving expired food items in flight on Wednesday.

The incident occurred on flight PA205 from Islamabad to Karachi, when a passenger noticed that the banana cake was expired for almost a month.

ProPakistani is in possession of the information and photographic evidence of the food, which shows that it expired on 1 July 2021.

the passenger said, “I was shocked to see the expiry date on the cake. I called the crew and informed her about the issue, and she had a similar reaction”.

“Later, she returned with another pack of cake that had the expiry date of 31 July, and argued that my cake wasn’t out of date; it could have been a printing mistake. The date on the back read ’01/07/2021′, that’s one month out of date. The flight staff said that no one else had complained, so I decided to file a complaint at the terminal, and when I landed, I lodged a written complaint at the Civil Aviation Authority (CAA) counter at Karachi airport,” he explained.

The passenger was told that he would receive a phone call from the concerned department soon. However, he had not received the call until the filing of this report.

AirBlue has not responded to a request for comments on the matter and has not addressed it publicly.
