Saudi Arabian Airlines joined other major Gulf airlines in suspending flights to Peshawar. This follows an attack by gunmen on a Pakistan International Airlines flight at Bacha Khan International Airport in the northern Pakistani city.
Saudia became the fourth international airline to do so after Emirates, Etihad Airways and Qatar Airways. A Saudia official said that the flights to and from Peshawar have been suspended because of security concerns.
Emirates had suspended flights from 25 June until further notice due to the security situation at the Peshawar airport. The airline mentioned that it had cancelled a flight scheduled to land at Bacha Khan International Airport and would make further decisions based on an assessment of the security situation.
