Air Indus was a private airline based in Karachi operating as a domestic airline. Its headquarters were located in Defence Housing Authority, Karachi.[1] Air Indus started operations on 28 July 2013.[2] However, it was forced to suspend operations on 1 July 2015 after the Civil Aviation Authority suspended its operations as they were not fulfilling the Pakistani legal requirements of 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.
The airline announced a resumption of operations in January 2016 but never started its operation due to unavailability of aircraft. The airline's remaining aircraft is in a grounded state near Jinnah International Airport's graveyard.[3]
