According to the UK High Commission, there was no need for reregistering if the intending passengers had already registered.

Karachi-London Heathrow      ----------------- April 30

Islamabad-London Heathrow ----------------- May 4

Islamabad-Manchester            ----------------- April 30, May 2, 5, 6
