A Pakistan International Airlines (PIA) flight left Riyadh, the capital of Saudi Arabia, for Islamabad on Sunday (January 18th), the Indian Express reported.
But the plane landed in Dammam due to bad weather. Some time passed after landing. He said he could no longer take the plane to Islamabad as the pilot's time was up.
Passengers on the plane protested against the pilot's decision. In protest, they refused to disembark. Airport security forces were later called in to bring the situation under control. A PIA spokesman said the pilots needed to take proper rest before taking off for safety reasons. So action is taken accordingly.
