Ever since the resumption of British Airways’ flights, the airline has provided the British Pakistani community as well as tourists with top-notch service. Passengers are quite optimistic about the launch of British Airways’ direct flights to Islamabad. Initially, the lowest fare for Economy Class was 457 GBP which is expected to increase up to 499 GBP by the end of the year. You can also experience the luxury of BA’s Business Class for as low as 1445 GBP. Flight number BA 261 lifts off from London Heathrow at 9:30 PM on Tuesdays, Thursdays and Sundays and lands in Islamabad at nine in the morning after 8 hours.

Another alternative airline to fly with, on your vacation in Islamabad is Emirates. Consistently, the airline has been providing one of the cheapest airfare for flights to the Pakistani capital. The quickest flight is just 14 hours long. But for those who require a little stay in Dubai, there are longer flights as well with stopovers that exceed 15 hours – a win for all. The cheapest flights are for around £480, but in the busy season, the seats onboard Islamabad bound aeroplanes can sell for £621 apiece. Another reason why Emirates flights to Islamabad sell like hotcakes is the spacious Economy Class of the A380 aircraft used by Emirates. These flights stop at the spectacular Dubai International Airport, which is a mini cosmopolitan city on its own.

Travelhouseuk offers customisable Umrah packages for all travellers taking flights from the UK to Islamabad and other cities in Pakistan. We can book flights with Saudi Airlines, and you and your family can perform Umrah as well, either while going to Islamabad or on the way back after visiting the city.

The cheapest time to visit the city is in October and November. The highest inflow of tourists and travellers to the country is in June and July. Pakistanis working in the different parts of the globe tend to come back home for the summer break. The tickets in the summer are, therefore, quite expensive but coming to the city in October can allow you to save a few hundred pounds when the prices of the airfare and accommodations are down.

The Islamabad International Airport (ISB) fulfils all the travelling needs of the Islamabad residents. The airport is also known as Gandhara International Airport. Islamabad International Airport is 31 kilometres away from the city centre – a distance that is easily covered in forty minutes. Currently, the airport can process fifteen million passengers every year. When the final phase of the construction is complete, the airport will be able to handle 25 million travellers a year.

The best time to visit the capital city of Pakistan is the months between October and July. The summers can be a bit warm, but the greenery around Islamabad can keep the mercury down. Moreover, the Margalla Hills in the north is a great escape, when days get hot in June. The temperature bounces between 15°C to 36°C during this period.

Islamabad is the most beautiful urban city in Pakistan, with planned roads and highways. Sitting on the foothills of the Margalla Mountains, the city shines like an emerald, especially after a cleansing rain. The green capital of Pakistan has many monuments and landmarks that tell the story of the country and its people.

• The Margalla Hills are a geographic feature of the city, but like the White Cliffs of Dover, they have become a symbol and a landmark of Islamabad. Most enjoyable are the hikes on the many trails that have been expertly paved up the mountains. The trees, exotic birds, monkeys and other animals share the hilly paradise with the human inhabitants.
• The Faisal Mosque is the biggest mosque in Pakistan and was once the largest mosque in the entire world. The unconventional style of the mosque makes the structure unique. The mosque has been designed to hold 100,000 worshippers, making it the fourth largest mosque in terms of capacity. Faisal Mosque was built to represent a Bedouin tent and has an ample pyramidal space inside.
• The Pakistan Monument is located on the western edge of the Shakarparian. The area is higher in altitude so the monument can be seen from every direction. Pakistan Monument symbolises the unity among the people of the country. At the centre of the memorial, there is a flower made out of four large granite petals that represent the four provinces of Pakistan. Ingrained in the granite slabs are the drawings of historic places and prominent personalities of the country.

The city of Islamabad has its own Metro Bus system. Currently, it has only one line, but an expansion project is under consideration. The Metro Bus can take the passenger from the Parliament House to the Saddar market in Rawalpindi, which is Islamabad’s twin city. It costs Rs30 (≈15 p) to get one ticket of the Metro. Additionally, cabs and taxis are zooming through the city. Uber and Careem have also extended their services in the town and often quote low prices to increase their customer loyalty. These vehicles are also quite safe, and the drivers usually have their background information check thoroughly before they are allowed to drive.

There are many five-star hotels in Islamabad. All are capable of serving customers who demand world-class services. Even though the use of alcohol is prohibited in the country, high-end hotels are allowed to keep a stash, especially for foreigners.
