INTERNAL FLIGHTS

SKARDU FLIGHTS

SKARDU is a weather-dependent airport. Since the valley is surrounded by high mountains, planes can only land here in good visibility and this means flights to and from SKARDU are never guaranteed. Planes do fly more often than not, but cancellations can and do occur and in these circumstances, we will travel by road.

HEALTH & VACCINATION

You should contact your doctor or travel clinic to check whether you specifically require any vaccinations or other preventive measures. You should be up to date with routine courses and boosters as recommended in the UK e.g. diphtheria-tetanus-polio and measles-mumps-rubella), along with hepatitis A and typhoid. Malarial prophylaxis is discretionary for this trip. Malaria exists in the area around Islamabad. However, incidences of urban transmission of malaria are extremely low. In Skardu and the mountains, there is no malaria risk. On holidays to more remote areas, you should also have a dentist check-up. A good online resource is Travel Health Pro. Dengue fever is a known risk in places near Islamabad. It is a tropical viral disease spread by daytime-biting mosquitoes. There is currently no vaccine or prophylaxis available and therefore the best form of prevention is to avoid being bitten. We recommend you take precautions to avoid mosquito bites

We highly recommend that you have adequate travel insurance for your trip with Trango Adventure Pakistan. We recognise the complexity and variety of choices in the insurance market and know that many of you either have your preferred insurer or have annual multi-trip cover in place already. If this is the case, please ensure that your insurer is aware of your Adventure itinerary and can agree to cover the activities being undertaken.

Trango Adventure does not provide any advice on travel insurance, although it is highly recommended that you have travel insurance which covers the activities which you are likely to be undertaking on your Pakistan holiday .

Helicopter Safari Pakistan holiday involves going to high altitudes. During your trip, you will be above 2,000 metres for 1-2 days. This is not something that you should worry about; the human body is quite capable of adapting to a very wide range of altitudes, but we must follow some simple rules to acclimatize successfully. Before coming on this holiday you should get some basic advice on Tours at high altitudes.

From mid-June to August, we can expect to encounter temperatures as high as 40°C at Karachi, Multan and Lahore, and 25°C in The Gilgit & Baltistan regions. Weather is generally good throughout the summer season, with clear skies and little rain or snow. However, weather in mountainous areas is difficult to predict, and short-lived storms can occur at any time.

Assl air has taken a big initiative to promote tourism in pakistan by introducing air safari to the ancient archaeological site mohenjo daro from karachi. the one day tour will cost 30,000 pkr per person..

A Pakistani private sector airline has taken the initiative to run a weekly flight to Mohenjo Daro from Karachi. This air safari to Mohenjo Daro from Karachi is gaining popularity among the tourists.

It will be a one day tour to the 5000 old ancient civilization across Indus Valley. The flight departs from Karachi every Sunday at 9 am and lands back at Karachi airport at 5 pm. People who want to enjoy the one-day air safari tour to Mohenjo Daro are advised to choose the winter or spring season. 

Read More: Pakistan Railways have introduced the Rail Safari from Golra Railway Station to Attock Khurd station to boost tourism in the region.

Initially, the company has planned a one day tour due to the lack of hotel and accommodation facilities at the site. Hence, the 450 kilometres distance will be covered in 1 hour from Karachi. 

The company is offering a complete one-day tour package in just 30,000 PKR. The package will include air travel, a complete tour of the archaeological site, a scrumptious lunch, a folk music party, and a visit to the nearby Safari resort at the lake site. The tourists will also have the opportunity of boating in the lake.

Moreover, the company’s spokesman said that they are planning to launch tourist flights to Harappa and Taxila too. Further, he also explained that the international airlines from the middle east have contacted them to join the air safari. 

The spokesperson further said that this initiative will put a soft image of Pakistan in the world. It will also help to increase tourism in Pakistan too.

2023 Canadian wildfire smoke maps show where air quality is unhealthy now and forecasts for the near future

By Caitlin O'Kane

Updated on: July 1, 2023 / 11:16 AM EDT / CBS News

Smoke from the wildfires raging in Canada have affected parts of the U.S. and satellite images from NASA show the smoke has even traveled across the Atlantic to Europe. Here is the expected forecast for the smoke.

For several days, parts of the Midwest and Northeast have been seeing unhealthy levels of smoke, with Detroit, Chicago and New York City  experiencing some of the worst air quality in the world, according to IQAir, which monitors the air quality index around the world. On Saturday, the air quality in the United States was better, with Washington, D.C., the highest-ranked American city on the index, coming in fourth on  IQAir's global ranking , and some Midwestern cities falling off the list.

The city with the worst air quality in the world was Jakarta, Indonesia, IQAir reported, followed by Lahore, Pakistan. Toronto, Canada came in third on the list, a sign that the smoke from the fires is having less of an impact in North America this weekend. 

The smoke is traveling along the jet stream, a pattern of wind that flows from west to east. In an email to CBS News Wednesday, meteorologist Jen Carfagno, co-host of The Weather Channel's "America's Morning Headquarters," and hurricane and storm specialist Greg Postel of The Weather Channel said the extreme and early start to fire season is related to the extremely above-average temperatures in Canada. 

An interactive map of particle pollution levels from The Associated Press, based on NOAA , EPA and other data, showed a large area of red, indicating an "unhealthy" Air Quality Index, over northwestern New York and Toronto. There were also some red spots in the Midwest, while further north in Canada there were some purple, or "unhealthy," zones. Much of the country, including the East Coast and the Midwest, were marked yellow, for "moderate" air quality. 

On Friday, the smoke appeared to move further east on the map.

"Poor air quality can be hazardous ," the National Weather Service warns — especially for more sensitive groups including children, the elderly, those who are pregnant, and people with pre-existing respiratory and cardiovascular issues. Health officials in numerous cities encouraged people to limit time outdoors.

Earlier this week, New York City air was considered "unhealthy," according to AirNow , and Gov. Kathy Hochul  issued air quality health advisories  for western and central New York and eastern Lake Ontario. As of Saturday morning, conditions in New York City remained "unhealthy for sensitive groups," while air quality in the rest of the state ranged from "moderate" to "unhealthy," according to AirNow. 

Pittsburgh's air quality was ranked as "very unhealthy" earlier in the week. Conditions have improved to "moderate" as of Saturday morning, according to AirNow . 

The amount of smoke the U.S. receives depends on "the wind direction, the wind speeds, the density variations in the smoke from the source region, and the stability in the atmosphere," Carfagno and Postel said. 

NASA said Monday the smoke from Canada had spread across the Atlantic  to southwestern Europe . Images from NASA's Terra satellite show smoke over Portugal and Spain, but NASA said it has spread even further. 

Smoke from wildfires has traveled in this way before. In 2017, NASA said smoke from West Coast wildfires traveled 3,000 miles to the East Coast. 

In 2020, smoke from the massive brushfires in Australia circled the globe, passing South America and reaching back to Australia where they originated, according to NASA.
