ISLAMABAD: Domestic airfares across Pakistan have been reduced following a cut in jet fuel prices, offering lower ticket prices on several local routes.
The minimum one-way fare from Islamabad to Quetta has been set at Rs16,770, while the maximum is Rs48,890. Fares from Lahore to Quetta now range from Rs12,020 to Rs44,140, while Karachi–Quetta tickets cost between Rs13,603 and Rs44,000.
Airline sources said an average fuel surcharge of Rs7,840 will continue to apply, along with government taxes and levies. As a result, the effective one-way fare on most domestic routes exceeds Rs26,000, while peak-season or last-minute tickets can reach up to Rs58,875.
According to aviation sources, the highest domestic fares are charged on the Quetta–Islamabad and Karachi–Islamabad routes.
