KARACHI: A Pakistan International Airline (PIA) aircraft's windscreen cracked mid-air en route to Islamabad due to low oxygen pressure.

According to reports, PIA’s flight PK-370 which was travelling from Karachi landed safely at the Islamabad International Airport on Saturday after the windscreen of the plane developed cracks due to the low oxygen pressure in the cabin.

The pilot of Islamabad-bound flight took notice of the broken windscreen while in air and landed the plane safely.

A PIA spokesperson said, the low oxygen pressure in the cabin was caused by a technical fault and that all the passengers on board remained unhurt.
