Pakistan airlines may soon be kept out of Indian skies
Air links between India and Pakistan — which include direct flights between the two countries and allowing airlines of one country to fly over the other — have now come under the scanner of the prime minister's office. The Modi govt is examining whether these should be allowed to continue post the Uri attack. While no Indian carrier flies to Pakistan, Pakistan International Airlines has 5 flights a week to India. Overflying is clearly the more critical part for airlines of both countries. At the moment, almost all flight operated by Indian carriers between Gulf, Europe and North America on the one hand and central, north and east India on the other fly over Pakistan. Similarly, PIA flies over India to Southeast Asia and Bangladesh. <br/>
