Dense fog disrupts flight operations at Allama Iqbal Airport Lahore, leading to cancellations and delays. A total of eight national and foreign flights were canceled, and 18 others faced significant delays due to poor visibility on the runway.
The adverse conditions prompted rescheduling of multiple international and domestic flights to and from Lahore airport.
Notably, flights such as PK-185 to Sharjah, PK-898 to Kuala Lumpur, PK-230 from Muscat to Lahore, and a private airline flight from Jeddah to Lahore were among those canceled.
Additionally, domestic flights, including PK-302 from Karachi to Lahore, and its return leg PK-303, were also affected. The persistent dense fog, with a recorded runway visibility of just 350 meters, disrupted the schedules of more than 16 flights at Allama Iqbal International Airport.
