It'll open in December after the link road is complete and testing for flight ops has been done. There will be no disasters. Having two runways close to each other simply means they can't be used simultaneously like they were initially planning to have them, both will be open but only one can be used at a specific time. For example: if there is a landing on the left runway, an aircraft wanting to take off will hold short of the right runway and takeoff once the left runway has been vacated.

So basically you have one runway the other one is useless as simultaneous ops not possible example chicago and Dulles has more than 4/5 runways and all can operate simultaneously so every minute 4/5 take offs and every two minute apart so do the math how many in 24 hours

Anyway it can only happen in South Asia

Water and power issues have been addressed.

Testing of flight ops such as the one being done in the picture, and the completion of the link road are causing delays.

Work was being done on war footings as mian sahib wanted to cut the ribbon on this one on August 14. With NS gone, they are going to take their time now. 4th delay this one? Or is it the third? Cant remember!

Officials needs customer service training and better attitude so passenger can benefit else building alone wont make difference

The basic design is very good. The setting is fantastic with beautiful backdrop. It's the simple things that let it down. Poor colour coordination. some shoddy work as well. Other than that it's looking good. It will make a great change from old Islamabad airport which was competing to be the worse airport in the world. Looking foward to landing there next year.
