While working in Canada, another Pakistan International Airlines (PIA) air hostess is reported to have vanished from sight. When Maryam Raza, who was supposed to be on aircraft PK 782 from Pakistan to Toronto, neglected to show up for work on the return flight, PK 784 from Toronto to Karachi, the event became public knowledge.
According to people with knowledge of the situation, after PIA’s hanging uniform was found in her room, a note with the words “Thank you, PIA” was found next to it.

This is the third instance of PIA flight attendants’ slipping’ while on duty that has been documented this year; two of the cases involve women. The efficiency of these procedures has been questioned, despite precautions including requiring flight attendants assigned to Toronto flights to have their passports collected in order to prevent similar events.

Additional sources on the subject state that the main causes of these said cases of slippage are low pay and a lack of job security at the national airline.

There have been requests for a thorough examination of rules to guarantee the safety and wellbeing of airline employees due to concerns expressed over the working conditions and incentives offered to PIA staff.
