Airblue Under Fire as Social Media Fills With Passenger Complaints
Airblue flights faced public criticism on social media after several users complained about delays and poor service. The debate began when passengers reacted to a post describing recent travel problems, with many sharing their own issues linked to Airblue flights.
@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

One user commented that this reflects how the entire system works, saying people only raise their voice when they personally suffer. Another traveller said he stopped using the airline on the Dubai–Islamabad route due to frequent delays and now prefers foreign carriers with more reliable service.

A third user wrote that similar problems exist across most airlines operating in Pakistan, whether government-run or private. Meanwhile, a passenger who has booked two tickets for the upcoming weekend expressed concern and hoped the flights would operate without disruptions.
Despite the criticism, one user urged others to support the national carrier instead of switching to private airlines, calling for more patriotism from travellers.
