How to fly Abu Dhabi to Lahore

Best time to book
Domestic demand peaks around Eid, summer holidays (especially to Skardu, Gilgit and Chitral in June–August) and winter breaks. Northern-area flights are weather-dependent in winter.
Arriving in Lahore
Allama Iqbal International Airport is on the east side of Lahore, about 30–40 minutes from Gulberg or DHA in normal traffic. It has the widest choice of Gulf and Saudi departures in Punjab, so Umrah groups from Gujranwala, Sheikhupura and Kasur usually depart from here.
