How to find cheap Airblue flights
A few tips to get the best Airblue fare from Pakistan.
Fly in February
Demand from Pakistan is usually lowest in February, September, October and November, so Airblue fares tend to be cheapest then. Avoid the weeks around Eid and the June–August holidays if you can.
Pick the right fare type
The cheapest Economy Value fare isn’t always the best value. Once you add bags and possible change fees, Economy Flexi can work out cheaper.
Be flexible by a few days
Moving your departure by a day or two, especially to a Tuesday or Wednesday, often unlocks a lower fare bucket. Tell us your flexible window and we’ll compare nearby dates.
Compare nearby airports
Airblue flies from Islamabad, Karachi, Lahore, Peshawar and Quetta. Fares from one city can be noticeably cheaper than from another, so it can pay to travel a little further to the airport.
Pre-book extra baggage
Extra baggage bought before you fly is much cheaper than paying at the airport counter. Tell us your bag needs when you book and we’ll add them in advance.
Book early for Eid and summer
Airblue seats around Eid and the summer holidays sell out early. Booking 6 to 8 weeks ahead secures better fares and seats together for families.
Book your Airblue ticket with peace of mind
Our ticketing team at O.S Travel & Tours checks every Airblue fare type for your dates, explains the refund and reissue rules in plain language and handles changes for you after booking.

Fares are usually highest in March, May, June, July and December, around Eid ul-Fitr, Eid ul-Adha, the summer school holidays and year-end travel. Islamic holidays move about 11 days earlier every year, so book early if your trip falls near Eid.
It depends on the fare you buy: Economy Value: No free checked baggage; Economy Flexi: 20 kg (1 bag); Economy Xtra: 30 kg (1 bag). Your exact allowance is printed on your e-ticket.
Airblue cabin baggage: 1 bag, 7 kg, max 45 in (22 × 15 × 8 in). Keep liquids in containers of 100 ml or less in a clear bag, and keep power banks in your cabin bag, never in checked luggage.
You pay the refund fee shown on your e-ticket; the balance is returned only to the original form of payment. CNIC details are required for every passenger on a refund. On the cheapest Economy Value fare the rule is: Fee shown on e-ticket. On Economy Xtra: Fee shown on e-ticket.
Changes cost the fee shown on your e-ticket plus any fare difference; the same fare is not guaranteed. Economy Value: Fee shown on e-ticket + fare difference; Economy Xtra: Fee shown on e-ticket + fare difference. We handle the reissue for you and confirm the total before anything is charged.
Choose Economy Value if your plans are fixed and you travel light. Pick Economy Xtra if your dates may change or you need a refund option; it usually costs more but saves on change and cancellation fees. For Umrah and family trips, check that checked baggage is included.
If you don’t show up for a flight, the airline may cancel the rest of your itinerary, including the return flight, and charge a no-show fee where the fare allows changes. Tell us before departure if you can’t travel; changing or cancelling in time is almost always cheaper than a no-show.
