This was told in PIA’s 359th Board of Directors meeting which was held at the airlines Head office. PIA Chairman Muhammad Ali Gardezi chaired the meeting. Managing Director Shahnawaz Rehman was also present in the meeting.
The board was informed that during the first six months of 2014, the airline managed to restrict loss to 10.1 billion which is Rs 8.25 billion less as compared to the corresponding period of 2013. The main reasons for reduction in loss were due to higher revenue and controlled expenditure.
