AirSial will fly Islamabad to Quetta non-stop every day from Sunday 25 October 2026, ProPakistani reported on Friday. The airline will use an Airbus A320 on the route, in both directions.

AirSial Islamabad to Quetta flight schedule

PF164Quetta to Islamabad2:30pm3:55pmAbout 1 hour 25 minutes

The flights run daily, seven days a week, so a day trip from Islamabad to Quetta is not possible on AirSial (the return leaves an hour after arrival), but a Quetta passenger can reach Islamabad by mid-afternoon and connect onward the same day. Fares were not part of the announcement; check the price on AirSial's own website or app before booking, and compare it with the other airlines below.

Two new Islamabad to Quetta flights in one week

AirSial's route starts one day before Airblue's. Airblue begins its own direct Islamabad to Quetta and Lahore to Quetta flights on 26 October, as we reported on 3 October: times and details are in our Airblue Quetta flights story. Passengers between the federal capital and Balochistan's capital will soon have more daily non-stop choices than at any time this year, which usually helps fares.

For Quetta residents, a daily non-stop flight also means quicker access to Islamabad's embassies, the passport and NADRA head offices and Islamabad International Airport's foreign connections.

Before you book

  • Compare the three: PIA, Airblue (from 26 October) and AirSial (from 25 October) on the same date, since fares on new routes are often lowest in the first weeks.
  • Baggage: A320 fares usually come in fare classes with different baggage limits; check what your ticket includes.
  • Getting to the airport: for a 12pm departure from Islamabad, plan to reach the airport by about 10:30am.
  • Paying for fuel instead? If you are weighing the drive, our fuel cost calculator works out the petrol for the trip at today's petrol price.

We will add fares to this page once AirSial publishes them.
