An Airbus A320 aircraft acquired by Pakistan International Airlines (PIA) on dry lease landed at Islamabad International Airport on Saturday.

The aircraft arrived in the capital from France’s Perpignan city via Egypt. This is the second of the two Airbus A320 aircraft acquired by the airline on a six-year dry lease to upgrade its fleet.

The first Airbus A320 had arrived in the capital last month.
