One of the finest airport of Pakistan. Pretty large parking area, both for 4 wheelers and 2 wheelers. Nominal parking charges. Other amenities include several cab services, McDonalds, public washrooms. One of the best thing is that bus is not required to board plane as they are directly connected to the airport through pathways. Another good thing in its design is split floors i.e. 1st is for departures while ground floor is for Arrivals. For drop off on 1st floor parking is not allowed/required.

Made in the late 80s but is still better than the other Pakistani & even regional airports. However if the world recovers from Covid soon then we surely need a huge upgrade if not a new airport

Love this place only to receive people not to drop. Was very happy with the SOPS being followed by the airport staff.

Jinnah International Airport is definitely an interesting place for an American to visit. While the Airport staff are spectacularly friendly, efficient, and helpful, the security forces like to use the word no alot. The business class lounge is nice to hang out in. The security folks do not like you wandering around. I do hope to see more the next time I am in Karachi.

Ordinary people, who wear simple dress, on bike or local transport cannot enter in Airport to receive or drop their friends and relatives.VIP people, wearing three piece suits, clean shaved, looking rich, on big cars and jeeps can enter. Security cannot ask to them about reason to enter.Security mentains difference between Rich and Poor people very nicely.Security staff behave very badly if anyone request to enter Airport.If you are rich or have armed forces card, so go to airport, otherwise save your self respect and never come here.

Pakistans top busiest Airport.However, going through strict S. O. Ps in these times.No more than 2-3 persons are allowed with the passenger.No seating arrangement on both the terminals due to covid. First floor is for departure, and ground one is for arrivals.Note: Persons waiting for the arrivals arent allowed to go into the terminal. They have to wait outside of the terminal.

Right now Jinnah Airport is following strict SOPs with respect to Covid-19, only 1 family member is allowed to receive incoming passengers. It was an unusual sight as the parking was nearly empty and a handful of people were standing right outside the main gate. No one is even allowed to enter the main building.The good side is that things move pretty smoothly, no rush, no parking issues, no long queues, no haphazard movements. Overall its calm and peaceful nowadays.

A nice airport, one of the busiest of Pakistan. Good lay out. Some shops with over priced goods are there. Though have some good lounges and cafes. No free WiFi though.The WORST part is the immigration staff. Lethargic, illiterate and not understanding. Seems like coming from stone ages. Systems not working is a norm here. They have so many irrelevant and irritating questions and seems to enjoy giving passengers tough time just for fun. Even being a Pakistani, we want to avoid them imagine how a foreigner would feel. They need to look into this.The airline counter staff issuing boarding passes are also very narrow minded, not willing to help anyone.

Well The airport is fine but it doesnt look like an airport of countrys biggest city.A lot of improvement is required.Parking fee is 90 PKR minimum.I heard that cab services do not appreciate Uber or Careem .Food stuff is extremely costly inside airport.But thank God . It has MacDonald in parking area.Washrooms are fair but as I told earlier that there is huge capacity of improvement.

Small causeway from aeroplane to main wing, dirtier ghan before. Seems no proper soap cleaning has never been done. Dull color paled out. Needs clean fresh air and some perfumed air as it feels stale and contained building. It needs to be sparkling clean. Service desks of CAA and FIA are destroyed almost. A lot of work needs to be done. However all the processes of exit and entry are far far better and faster than anywhere in world. Its a small airport but does good work.

We can find everything good here except the behaviour of some officials on duty. This is kinda a good standard airport of Pakistan and also the older one. They have maintained it in a good way but need to be anxiety free and easy space for travellers. Karachi has different exposure because of being biggest city of Pakistan. So people comes and go frequently for thier business meetings, seminars, expos, media industry engagements and many others. Its a neat and clean space to be and positive side of this place is, management maintaining it in a good way.Restarea: 9/10Namaz place: yesWaiting area: yesCovid precautions (SOP): yes 9/10Parking for droppers: yes 9/10

Jinnah International can use a little more manpower to keep it clean. We can employee more better electronic and smart ways for security checks and customs, rather than using Men in uniforms, holding guns and staring down hard at passengers travelling thru, making them uncomfortable and discouraging them for any future travels thru the airport unless its necessary. Immigration counters needs more modren equipments and smart looking sharp officers, rather than slow and lazy persons at the helms. Remember, an airport, its condition, the services provided and the staff working is the first impression people get whenever they travel thru. The better the services, the more passengers you will have, which means more revenue

This airport was built when I was a kid and then later I used to visit it on Saturdays to quench my thirst in hot 40 degree Celcius summer afternoons on my way back from school. This airport is still in good condition and is one of the busiest airports in Pakistan. There are a lot of options to reach there through taxis and public transport and they have a nice security and parking area.It was really nice to arrive at the airport after few years and recall some childhood memories.

Only hours after the hardest rain I have ever experienced in Karachi, I drove up to the Jinnah International at 0330, and full marks to whosoever had made the effort to clear the main arteries!! Had seen a couple of Police vehicles patrolling on the water-logged roads in DHA, and these were there on Shahrah-e-Faisal also. Just as one saw city workers doing a clean-up in some areas!!

One of the best airports in Pakistan. It’s spacious, cosy, sound and comfortable. Like any international airport it has all the facilities for local duty free shopping and restaurants to grab a bite.The mosque is very beautiful, kept very neat and clean with proper and spacious area for performing wuzu. The large window side of the mosque faces the west where one can enjoy the serene sunset round the year.The waiting area for all classes are great, lounges with comfy seats and all facilities.However they just need to install the hotel/sleeping pod facility for passengers with long lay over in the flights.
