Tell me more: When the pandemic began, flights were suspended all over the world. Pakistan suspended all international and domestic flights in March 2020.

This impacted travel agencies as well as tourism worldwide.

Towards the end of 2020, travel resumed slowly but surely, and by 2021 almost all flight schedules had returned to normal.

Travel agencies started getting their pace back. Some even managed to expand their business.

And Sastaticket.pk was one of them.
