Pakistan Peoples Party (PPP) Senator Sherry Rehman on Tuesday claimed Pakistan International Airlines (PIA) boarded her on the wrong plane as she was travelling to Garhi Khuda Bux for the death anniversary of slain former prime minister Benazir Bhutto.
"PIA boarded us on the wrong ATR for Multan instead of Sukkur," she tweeted.

Rehman later added that she was now on the right flight "but no bakra in sight", referring to a goat 'sadqa' made by the national flag carrier that made headlines after the first ATR aircraft was cleared for take off following the PK-661 ATR plane crash earlier this month.
Sources within the PIA told Dawn.com that two ATR aircraft, Sukkur-bound PK-590 and Multan-bound PK-330, were parked side by side "which may have confused the senator".
PIA Spokesman Danyal Gilani said the airline is looking into the matter.
