The story

Air Indus started operations on 28 July 2013. However, it was forced to suspend operations on 1 July 2015 after the Civil Aviation Authority suspended its operations for not fulfilling the Pakistani legal requirements of having three operating aircraft after two aircraft were damaged in a terrorist attack at Karachi Jinnah Airport on July 9, 2014. Its main base of operations and hub was Jinnah International Airport, Karachi.

After almost 11 years of inactivity and various failed restart attempts, the Pakistan Civil Aviation Authority restored Air Indus' license. The airline subsequently announced intentions to restart operations.
