Multan International Airport available to be used as an alternative
Karachi: The Nawabshah airport will remain closed till September 25 as the airport's runway is still inundated with floodwaters.
The Pakistan Civil Aviation Authority (PCAA) issued a Notice to Airmen (NOTAM) following the situation.
According to Pakistan Civil Aviation Authority (CAA), the airfield of Nawabshah airport was still submerged with rainwater, rendering it unusable for flight operations.
Flight operations – including take-off and landing – have been suspended at Nawabshah airport as floodwaters left the entire airfield flooded since last month.
All flights—between Lahore and Karachi—are advised to use Multan Airport as a secondary airport (in bad weather conditions only) in the wake of the closure of Nawab Shah Airport. CAA said there are fears that runaway lights may also damage.
Meanwhile, Multan International Airport was available to be used as an alternative.
It is pertinent to mention here that Nawabshah airport was temporarily closed on August 24 after torrential rains battered the city leaving the entire airfield flooded.
