Bhoja Air fares raised

RECORDER REPORT

KARACHI: Bhoja Air has enforced an increase in their overall fares effective from January 16, 2000, the managing director, Captain Aijaz All Faizi said in a press release issued on Saturday. The press release, however, did not mention the amount of increase.

Capt Faizi said that this increase in fares which has now become unavoidable, will still keep Bhoja Air competitive amongst the other private airlines of Pakistan.

He expressed the hope that the other airlines would immediately follow Bhoja's lead and bring the air-fares to a reasonable level, so that the safety and reliability of air travel could be maintained.
