Canadian Authority Certifies PIA Services Adhere To International Guidelines

The Canadian Transport Agency has concluded that PIA’s operating services satisfy international standards. It hopes that the airline will continue to operate efficiently.

Transport Canada’s Safety Validation and Airworthiness Desk of the Canadian Transport Authority provided the audit report on PIA’s safety. After the European Union imposed an embargo on Pakistan, the authority examined PIA in August 2020.

Transport Canada accepted that PIA has implemented the necessary actions to address the findings issued by the Transport Canada Foreign Operations Division Airworthiness Audit Specific ICAO Airworthiness Elem­ents on August 26, 2020, according to a letter to PIA CEO Air Marshal Arshad Malik.

According to the audit report, all of the airworthiness issues have been resolved. It was also realized that numerous long-term, systematic reforms in flight and airworthiness operations have been undertaken in recent years to improve PIA safety.
