The incidents of the PIA air hostess and cabin crew members slipping have been accelerated amid clouds of uncertainty prevailed on the national airline in the backdrop of the privatization process.
Five crew members slipped in 2022 and seven in 2023 on overseas flights while most of PIA’s air hostesses have slipped in Canada.
PIA spokesman admitted that no slipped air hostess was brought back to Pakistan. The first PIA crew member of 2024 also went missing in Canada yesterday wherein air hostess Faiza Mukhtar, posted on PIA’s Toronto flight, allegedly slipped.
PIA said the incident came to the knowledge when Faiza Mukhtar did not report to the staff.
The PIA spokesperson said that departmental disciplinary action has been initiated against Faiza Mukhtar as affidavits of air hostesses are available with the national carrier and FIA will also be contacted.
Earlier the PIA authority argued that Canadian immigration rules are responsible for the slipping of its cabin crew as these soft rules encourage the slipping trend.
