Prices here are ranges only. They are not fixed prices. Your final fare is confirmed on WhatsApp before you book.

When Do Hajj Flights Start?

Hajj flights from Pakistan usually start 4 to 6 weeks before Hajj and return flights run for a few weeks after. The exact dates change every year with the Islamic calendar, and are announced by the Ministry of Religious Affairs and the airlines. Book only after the official dates are announced.

Which Cities Have Hajj Flights?

Hajj flights operate from Pakistan’s major airports — Islamabad, Karachi, Lahore, Peshawar, Multan and Quetta. PIA and Saudi Arabian Airlines (Saudia) operate most Hajj flights. Private airlines also operate some Hajj flights through approved operators.

Government Scheme vs Private Hajj

  • Government scheme: balloting selects pilgrims; flights and hotels are arranged by the government.
  • Private Hajj: booked through approved Hajj Group Organisers (HGOs); more choice of hotels and dates, usually higher cost.

Both options include flights, hotels and transport in Saudi Arabia. Compare them before you decide.

Hajj Flight Prices

Hajj flight prices depend on the year, the scheme and the city. As a general range, Hajj packages (flights + hotels + transport) usually start from around PKR 1,000,000 and go higher for better hotels and shorter stays. These are ranges only — the final price is confirmed when the official scheme is announced.

What Documents Do You Need?

  • Valid passport (usually 6+ months validity).
  • Hajj visa arranged through the official scheme or your HGO.
  • Health requirements as announced each year (vaccinations and medical certificate).
  • Confirmed booking with your scheme or organiser.

Tips for Hajj Travellers

  • Apply early. Government balloting and private bookings both fill fast.
  • Book only through approved organisers. Check the official list before paying anyone.
  • Keep your documents safe. Passport, visa and booking papers in one folder.
  • Ask questions. A good organiser explains every step clearly.
