Pakistan’s low-cost carrier Fly Jinnah commenced operations to Sharjah in the UAE earlier this
month.

On 17 February, the carrier undertook its first flight between Islamabad and Sharjah, which also
marked its first international service.

Fly Jinnah is operated jointly by Lakson Group of Pakistan and the UAE’s Air Arabia Group.

The Islamabad-Sharjah route will be operated twice daily. 9P 740 departs Islamabad at 7.10am
and lands in Sharjah at 9.45am. 9P 741 then leaves from Sharjah at 10.25am and arrives back in
Islamabad at 2.20pm.

The second daily flight, 9P 742, departs from Islamabad at 8.15pm and lands in the UAE at
10.50pm. 9P 743 then leaves from Sharjah at 11.30pm and arrives back in Islamabad at 3.25am.

Both flights are operated by the airline’s A320 aircraft. Fly Jinnah said that to cater to its
expanded operations, it recently added two new Airbus A320 aircraft to its fleet taking the total
number of its aircraft to five.
