He stated that there were around 29 airstrips spread across the nation for ticketing and landing reasons, with almost eight of them being completely operational.

He said that both a foreign and a Pakistani corporation were contacted when creating the program. He remarked, “It is highly delightful that the results of the Pakistani company’s developed application are outstanding,” and he said that the program will be employed for the service.

Asim Nawaz, the CEO of Sky Wings, asserted that they were also receiving inquiries from foreign firms interested in investing in the company.

Along with the nine public and private airports in the nation, the service would also be offered from Rahim Yar Khan and Balochistan, he continued.

The service would be progressively extended countrywide, according to CEO Nawaz.
