Pakistan International Airline is national enterprise of the Government of Pakistan which is now struck in the great loss due to some reasons as the PIA management is expecting the government to resolve its continuing liabilities by approaching the coming budget. PIA has faced great amount of loss by blaming the staff and rising fuel prices but certainty these reasons maybe accountable for their loss to some point but they are not the only reasons.
But the two main reasons of PIA loss are their political employees and free tickets service as they had distributed 2, 87000 tickets free in one year which has become the great source of their loss. Ejaz Haroon, the Managing Director of Pakistan International Airlines Captain has announced free tickets to many people and senior officials. As PIA is offering free ticket service to its working chairman, managing directors and to their families due to which PIA remains to suffer with heavy losses.
The other reason behind PIA loss is their political employees who have fake degree and working in PIA since many years. Most of all political appointees in PIA are not working properly even they are not trained in related fields as this reason is causing great disadvantage for PIA at any level. Recently PIA has fired almost 300 workers among 16,000 employees of PIA due to fake academic degrees which were exposed due to the effort of Supreme Court to verify the qualifications of PIA’s employees.
