Duration: 45 minutes
There are various options to book the magical Skardu Flight: PIA website (accepts Credit Cards), PIA Call Center, PIA Ticket Office (located at airports and in the city center). Booking early, 4-6 weeks, is highly recommended, especially when you require more than one ticket with preferred seat allocation in the busy summer season. Keep in mind the reconfirmation requirement peculiar to this route, without which your ticket, or E-ticket for that matter, will be just another piece of paper.
While booking, try to get the right
hand side seat of the aircraft for better views, and economy plus will
be a bonus in additional PKR 200 per person. The flight is quite unique
in the sense that it flies besides mountain ranges and is truly
considered as the most dangerous commercial flight of the aviation
industry. Contrary to normal flights, the plane flies besides Nanga
Parbat – aka the Killer Mountain – among other snow covered peaks hence
taking the experience to new and unexplored levels. Landing at Skardu
airstrip is very thrilling too as this is the narrowest valley that is
operated by any commercial flight. No surprise that PIA’s Flight PK 451
is considered as the most dangerous commercial flight of the aviation
industry. Beware; you will be forced to hold your breath as the plane
starts descending into the rocks until it lands safely on the narrow
airstrip right besides the river bed!
Once booked, tickets need reconfirmation by calling PIA call center – 24 hours in advance from the departure time.
