Can I make a 1 hour 15 min connection at LHE on an international flight?
1 hour 15 min is below the 120-minute international MCT at Allama Iqbal International. You may need to rush and could miss your connection. The domestic and international terminals sit side by side but are not linked by an airside corridor, so passengers usually exit and re-enter through separate entrances, sometimes via a short shuttle or apron bus for connecting crews and passengers. All transfers require a fresh security screening, and international-to-domestic or domestic-to-international connections also require immigration/customs processing since there is no sterile transit zone.
How much time do I need for a layover at LHE?
We recommend at least 1 hour for a comfortable connection at Allama Iqbal International. This gives you enough buffer for security (typically 20 minutes) and transit between terminals (up to 25 minutes).
What happens if I miss my connection at LHE?
If you miss a connection at LHE, go to your airline's transfer desk or ticket counter in the terminal you land in — Pakistan International Airlines has the most extensive rebooking presence — as there is no dedicated multi-airline transfer hub desk.
