Lahore airport will close for three hours each day during the rainy season for safety concerns.

Throughout the monsoon season, the Allama Iqbal International Airport will be closed for three hours each day.

The Civil Aviation Authority (CAA) said on Sunday that due to a high concentration of birds during the monsoon season, both runways at Lahore Airport will be closed from 5:00 a.m. to 8:00 a.m. for safety concerns, effective July 10 to September 10.

The CAA has advised both local and foreign airlines of this precautionary action to safeguard passenger safety.
