Meanwhile, the cancellation of flights by various foreign airlines annoyed travelers and caused financial losses for those who booked hotels according to their itinerary.
This situation has forced the Civil Aviation Authority (CAA) to warn air operators.
The NCOC has also developed a comprehensive system to contain the spread of the coronavirus, which includes rapid testing and quarantine of travelers upon arrival in Pakistan.
