Islamabad by plane


Islamabad by plane

  • Benazir Bhutto International Airport (IATA: ISB) situated in the middle of Rawalpindi receives flights from a variety of international destinations, including in Europe (London, Manchester, Birmingham, Amsterdam, Frankfurt, Paris), the middle east Dubai (via Emirates, Pakistan International Airlines ), ), Sharjah ( ), Muscat, Doha, and Baghdad (Iraqi Airways)) and other Asian cities such as Urumqi (China Southern Airlines) and Bangkok (Thai Airways). Worth noting that other international destinations are served direct from Karachi and Lahore, including the only link to central Asia (Uzbekistan Airways fly from Lahore to Tashkent). A taxi from the airport to Islamabad is around Rs400 (in a yellow non a/c cab). You can easily walk out of the airport and hail a taxi to get a cheaper price.
  • Islamabad airport can get busy and groan under the weight of departing passengers, meaning giving yourself 2 hours prior to departure is a good idea. As with most places in Pakistan queuing is a optional concept and hence checking-in can involve getting those elbows out and pushing to the front.
