LONDON: Thousands of British-Pakistanis are in limbo due to the travel ban imposed by the Pakistan’s government after the new variant of COVID-19 spread – forcing dozens of countries to impose travel bans on flights from Britain. Pakistan followed European countries, India and some Gulf countries to slap a ban on flights from the United Kingdom and since then thousands of British-Pakistanis have been in a state of confusion, waiting for the restrictions to be lifted or eased.
Majority of the 40 countries which slapped travel bans from the UK flights have since allowed their own nationals to travel. On Monday night, a chartered flight of 371 seats from Manchester to Islamabad carried only one passenger from Sialkot who was on a visit visa.
