Pakistan International Airlines plans to restore Islamabad–Birmingham flights from December 1, 2026, according to an October 21 schedule report by AeroRoutes. Three weekly services are listed. This is a future service plan, not confirmation that flights have already resumed.
What is in the reported schedule?
AeroRoutes’ Jim Liu reported that reservations had opened for Tuesdays, Thursdays and Saturdays. PK791 is listed from Islamabad at 12:15 p.m., arriving in Birmingham at 4 p.m.; PK792 leaves Birmingham at 6:30 p.m., reaching Islamabad at 7:15 a.m. the following day. All times are local.
The report lists a Boeing 777-200LR initially, changing to a 777-200ER from December 10. Aircraft assignments can change. It says PIA last served Birmingham in 2022. AeroTelegraph’s October 27 recap repeats the planned December return; the underlying schedule report dates from October 21.
What to check before buying
Confirm the date, operating airline, airports and nonstop routing on the itinerary offered for your own journey. Check baggage, change and refund conditions before payment, especially if adding a separate onward ticket. A published schedule does not guarantee seats or a particular aircraft on every date.
No fare, baggage allowance or cabin-service promise is included here. Flyzeu has not independently completed a booking or obtained a separate dated airline or airport announcement confirming every timetable detail. The flight times above are attributed to the schedule report and should be checked again before travel.
