Pakistan to Build Brand-New International Airport in FaisalabadFaisalabad is set to welcome a brand-new international airport as Pakistan Airports Authority (PAA) moves forward with one of its most ambitious projects yet.
The new facility is expected to transform air travel in central Punjab, offering modern infrastructure, faster services, and improved international connectivity.
Industry experts believe that the airport will boost business and tourism, making Faisalabad a stronger hub for both trade and travel. Local exporters, especially from the textile sector, are likely to benefit from direct global links without relying heavily on airports in other cities.
PAA is taking the first step by bringing consultants on board to design and plan the airport. Once finalized, the project will move toward construction, setting the stage for Faisalabad to become a major aviation gateway.
Meanwhile, Pakistan’s aviation sector is also witnessing growth on other fronts. Saudi Arabia’s budget airline, Flyadeal, has announced new flights between Sialkot and Riyadh starting August 26. With three weekly services, the airline aims to cater to the large Pakistani community living in the Kingdom.
Both developments signal brighter skies ahead for Pakistan’s aviation industry, promising more opportunities, better connectivity, and a modern travel experience for passengers.
