ISLAMABAD: Pakistan hopes its national carrier Pakistan International Airlines can resume flights to Britain in next three months, Aviation Minister Khawaja Saad Rafique said. Rafique made announcement in Parliament, saying new legislation this week has removed last hurdle for national carrier to fly to United Kingdom.

 "God willing, PIA flights will resume at least to UK in three months and later, flights to Europe and America will resume," he said. PIA's flights to Europe and England were suspended after European Union Aviation Safety Agency revoked national carrier's authorisation to fly to bloc in 2020 following fake pilot scandal in South Asian nation.
