Airline to confiscate cabin crews passports after second flight attendant goes missing during layover
Helen Coffey
An airline has said it will confiscate cabin crew passports during layovers after the second flight attendant in six months went missing.
Pakistan International Airlines (PIA) issued the directive after a member of crew failed to turn up for the return leg of a round-trip from Lahore to Toronto over the weekend.
The unnamed employee from Islamabad flew out on flight PK798, touching down on 29 January, but did not show up for the flight back to Pakistan.
A very similar incident occurred in July 2020, reports One Mile at a Time, when a PIA flight attendant named Yasir went missing from the crew hotel during a layover in Toronto.
When contacted by the airline, he informed officials that he was going to stay in another city. After that he became unreachable.
