At the other end
Islamabad International sits a substantial drive from both Islamabad and Rawalpindi. Arrange transport in advance, and factor the drive into arrival timings when relatives are meeting you.
ISB is the practical entry point for Kashmir, Khyber Pakhtunkhwa, Abbottabad, and the northern areas. If your final destination is up-country, the onward road journey is often longer than the domestic flight would be from Lahore.
The newer terminal is considerably easier to move through than older Pakistani airports, which matters on arrival after a 24-hour journey with several checked bags and elderly parents.
Families on this route routinely exceed standard allowances. Buying extra capacity at the Calgary check-in desk is the most expensive way to do it — tell us at booking and we will build it in.
