Britain has lifted a years-long ban on Pakistani airlines following improvements in the country's aviation safety standards, the British diplomatic mission in Islamabad said Wednesday.

The UK’s Air Safety Committee imposed the ban after Pakistan’s aviation minister disclosed in June 2020 that nearly one-third of the country’s pilots had cheated in their licence exams.
