Re: # 3

Thanks!

Yeah i guess i am, but the point of writing the article was to highlight the experience of receiving guests at the airport in Islamabad-Rawalpindi :)

I've had 3 of my friends call me and tell me how true it was when they went on separate occasions to fetch their friends and family.

"Riff raff".

Nice descriptive satire. You intend to get people's backs up?

ejaz, yes the airport in Rawalpindi/Islamabad should be looked at by the concerned authorities.

The good news is that work is underway on Islamabad's own airport (its off of the M-2 on your way to Peshawar).

I haven't been to Karachi so can't comment there, but Lahore's Allama Iqbal Airport is far better, at least it has walkways where the planes can dock :)

Pakistan just isn't a happy place, its airports are a reflection of that.
