Karachi, Jinnah International Airport

I love Jinnah airport I am going there next week to Pakistan and I am going to see my family. I love it.

All types of services are available there. Karachi International Airport seems to be equivalent of Standard Airport if you wish to compare it. No bad points.

Arrived at Karachi's Jinnah International Airport after several years absence on a long flight from the US dreading the experience and prepared to retrieve my long dormant skills of aggression, pushiness, and pulling rank that i had learned when i lived there years ago. Pleasantly surprised overall - maybe because I was traveling in C class, when i left the plane, it wasn't total madness and getting through immigration was a breeze. My checked bags, modest in size and number (just 1) compared to other passengers made me an easy shoe-out by the customs guy and through the machine. Since this was right before Eid, I had expected arrivals to be hellish and was pleasantly surprised that they were not.

Departure was a little more challenging until I got to the C class check-in line at which point I was escorted through the process till the lounge (I was told I should have presented my C class ticket outside and an escort would have helped me through the initial entry and pre-departure customs).

For all its reputation, KHI is not a bad airport - I've travelled much in Europe, Africa, the US and parts of Asia and i can think of several airports that have much worse systems.
