Travel to Pakistan from USA (advice/options)?

[arnold_mic]

Brothers & Sisters,

I would like your input/advice to travel to Pakistan (Karachi) from USA on following points

Which airline you guys preferred & why? (PIA is not operating anymore)
Buy Ticket online or from Travel Agent? pros & cons

I really appreciate your input. :jazak:

 

[oscar]

Ettihad and Emirates have best prices
http://www.etihadairways.com
www.emirates.com
buy online from their websites, using a credit card.
but u need to have the card with you at the boarding time.

British Airways is good too, but I think it isn't flying to Pakistan nowaday.

 

[Qureshi1975]

From which city you want to fly out?

 

[replicaa]

Even better if you check the prices online and then call them to negotiate and they will give you a little bit more discount. Better to have a homework with couple of other airline prices and this will help you to get better discount.

 

[badrinath]

I prefer buying online, if you don't want any of these: stopovers, multi-destinations flight, visa information/application.

I use:

No need to go on any online website. You should always book your ticket, through your local travel agent. You should be able to find many travel agents in chicago and NYC area, call them and book your tickets through them. If you want to travel in DEC, then wattt lag gayi. average ticket is around 23-2700$ ;p

Whichever flight u go is ok but take extra care of your Kids , and get a lot of dollars ready to pay ransom !

 

[nucleairee]

Which city are you flying from? Qatar Airways is a nice option from Houston.

 

[webdev]

MR. XYZ.

Don't waste our time by posting useless threads.

I AM COMING? so what

there are millions of people coming daily, its not special.

and in future avoid these kind of stupid, idiot threads.

What Pakistan think of USA is they are PEOPLE OF STONE AGE who still exists in 21 century.
