PIA has announced that its offices in Islamabad will be closed for three days due to the upcoming Shanghai Cooperation Organization (SCO) conference. According to an official notice from PIA, these offices will remain shut from October 14 to 16 to help facilitate the smooth running of the summit.
However, PIA employees who work at the airport in shifts will continue their duties as usual and won’t be affected by the office closures. This ensures that PIA’s services, especially those related to flights and airport operations, will continue without disruption.
The SCO summit is set to take place in Islamabad on October 15 and 16. Several important heads of state and government officials, including India’s foreign minister, are expected to attend.
By closing its offices during this period, PIA is showing its commitment to supporting the successful hosting of this major international event. The decision helps ease the pressure on the city during the summit and allows for better focus on ensuring smooth travel and operational services.
This step reflects PIA’s efforts to contribute to the overall success of the SCO conference while ensuring that essential services at the airport continue running smoothly.
