One user remarked that the situation reflects broader systemic issues, noting that people only raise their voice when they are personally affected. Another passenger said he no longer travels with Airblue on the Dubai–Islamabad route due to repeated delays and now prefers foreign carriers for their more reliable schedules.
@airblueairline is a disaster…. Zero ethics…. They overbook… delay flight, close check in, push you next flight…. Ask you more money … you cant cancel you cant do anything…. Pure ransom
Humble request: do not use this airline until you are compelled to

A third user commented that such problems are widespread across many airlines operating in Pakistan, whether government-owned or private. Meanwhile, a traveller who has already booked two upcoming weekend flights expressed concern, hoping the airline will operate without further disruptions.
Amid the criticism, one user defended Airblue, urging people to support national carriers rather than rely solely on private airlines, and called for a more patriotic approach from travellers.
