UK Lifts 5-Year Ban On This Airline After Fake Pilot License Scandal

The United Kingdom has lifted the ban on Pakistani airlines from using its airspace, with the Asian country’s carriers having been on the European nation’s no-fly list for just over five years. Most notably, this will allow Pakistani flag carrier Pakistan International Airlines (PIA) to fly to the UK once again, with a fake pilot license scandal at the operator having played a key role in the initial instatement of the ban.
