He also sought compensation for the inconvenience and trouble he faced.Additionally, Shahzain confirmed he did not have a passport or visa for international travel."

Two hours into the flight, I questioned why the plane had not yet reached Karachi. This caused panic among the crew, who then blamed me for the mistake," he said, adding that when he asked to be taken to Karachi, he was told it would take two to three days."I was told that the Federal Investigation Agency (FIA) would conduct an inquiry to which I assured to cooperate," he further stated.The Pakistan Airport Authority has already taken notice of the incident, with the Lahore Airport Management holding the airline responsible.The manager said that the passenger's arrival in Jeddah instead of Karachi was a result of the carrier's 'negligence and carelessness'.He noted that a request for action has been submitted to the authorities.
