(MENAFN) Planes for Pakistan International Airlines (PIA) that are flying to Kuwait and Salalah in Oman have been cancelled.

The airline has already suffered from losses worth over $5 billion, forcing it to suspend flights to New York in 2017.

The carrier declared "passengers of flights for Kuwait and Salalah (Oman), which will be temporarily suspended, will be re-accommodated through convenient alternatives."

Its statement added "however, the resumption of operations will be considered based upon commercial merit and viability."
