BA suspends Pakistan flights
ISLAMABAD - BRITISH Airways has suspended its flights to Pakistan because of security fears after a bloody suicide truck-bomb blast at a hotel in Islamabad over the weekend, an airline spokesman said on Monday.

'We suspended all flights to Pakistan immediately after the blast. It's a temporary suspension. Our people at headquarters are reviewing the security situation,' said spokesman Sohail Rehman.

The airline had six flights a week to Pakistan, he said. -- REUTERS
