as i expected, calibration was done towards the end of March after i had visited..... few before the video got posted i was at the Approach Room, Director sb was reviewing the date of last calibration -- it was done in April 2017 and was due, hence the recalibration.....also during day hours Approach Room of IIAP is used instead of BBIAP for function testing of the equipment.....

they haev built the Mosque away from the main airport building.....obviously there are prayer rooms at the airport building but the main mosque should have been atleast with in the building are atleast connected to the building......

International airlines optimistic about prospects of new Islamabad airport


Talking about the chances of operating the A380 aircraft at the new airport, Alsafi said that Emirates is yet to carry out the inspection at the new facility for A380 compatibility; however, the Civil Aviation Authority has assured the airline that it will be compatible. "We cannot comment yet on whether we will be starting A380 operations in Pakistan or not. Our A380 service is second to none - Emirates has the highest A380 fleet in the world and for now, Pakistani customers can enjoy our A380 services from Dubai and beyond," Husain Alsafi maintained.

Emirates currently operates 71 weekly flights in six cities in Pakistan including 35 weekly flights to Karachi, 5 to Peshawar, 10 each to Lahore and Islamabad, 7 to Sialkot and 4 weekly flights to Multan. The Dubai based airline has been operating in Pakistan for over 30 years now, undeterred by the vulnerable security situation and political instability in the region.

It is the same at Qatar airport as well and in Dubai airport AFAIK. A standard design that everyone is following these days.

The mosque is a bit overdone. Also hope the services matches the new infrastructure and brand new airport. Airport is all about meticulous and professional services.

Hope they hire the best among the lot...

Agree with that ......but we need to follow our own design.....since the firm that designed the building is in Singapore so theres a bit of touch from South East Asian airports.....specially the passport control has resemblance to KL airport......

As far as Doha HIA is concerned then am traveling through doha past few months via QR, really like what they have done to the airport...I might make an exit for a day out in doha....
