It was a dream of the younger sister, Erum to fly alongside her elder sibling Maryum. Eventually, it has now become a reality as Erum was recently upgraded to fly a B-777.
What is more, it is for the first time in South Asian history that two sisters flew a plane such as the PIA Boeing-777 to operate several flights collectively.
The news was also confirmed by PIA spokesman Daniyal Gillani who tweeted about the unique achievement by Maryum and Erum.
