Flying from Sialkot
Sialkot International Airport is a busy air transport hub that welcomes over one million passengers every year. It is continually expanding to match the growing demands of greater numbers of business and leisure travellers. Passengers flying from Sialkot with Qatar Airways will be impressed by the positive, proactive atmosphere of the airport, and the warm welcome and professionalism of the staff.
Transportation and parking
It is easy to drive to the airport, as the Sialkot-Wazirabad highway has a slip road that leads straight to the airport. However, parking is limited and in very high demand so it may be best to make alternative parking arrangements away from the airport and travel to it by taxi. Buses and trains run from Sialkot to Sambrial, but at that point you will need to disembark and take a taxi to the airport itself.
At the airport
Passengers flying from Sialkot with Qatar Airways leave from the main terminal’s Departures hall. A business lounge is available for First and Business class passengers, while a large and comfortable general lounge is also available. Check-in can take some time, due to the very tight security checks, so allow at least two hours before your flight is due to board to check-in and go through security.
Facilities and amenities
The airport is well-designed, bright and airy, with cool waiting areas that provide welcome relief from the usual summer heat. Restaurants in the main terminal serve a variety of food, including local dishes and specialities, as well as other international cuisine.
Coffee stands and cafeterias provide lighter snacks and beverages, while a number of shops sell travel essentials and souvenirs.
Duty Free shops sell luxury goods including perfume, and there are plenty of banking facilities on-site, including ATMs and currency exchange desks. Prayer rooms offer a quiet area for devotions, and there is special assistance for disabled passengers available upon request.

Tourist attractions
Milan’s museums house collections of international importance.

The museum is home to Italy’s finest classical art collection, including "The Kiss" by Francesco Hayez. Other must-see museums and galleries include the Pinacoteca Ambrosiana, the Poldi Pezzoli Museum, and the Societa' per le Belle Arti ed Esposizione Permanente for more contemporary art and sculpture.
The Leonardo da Vinci Museum of Science and Technology is a fascinating and interactive museum that looks a little more closely at some of the great man’s scientific inventions and ideas. For opera lovers, the obvious destination has to be La Scala Theatre, one of the world’s most important venues for classical opera. A strangely beautiful attraction is the Art Nouveau cemetery of Cimitero Monumentale, which is filled with lavish sculptures and is effectively the largest open-air Art Nouveau museum in the world.
The Cinque Vie historical district is Milan’s ancient heart, and is where the Roman city grew up. It’s also home to some of the city’s most exclusive boutique shopping, and plenty of espresso bars to keep you refreshed and fuelled up for a busy day’s sightseeing.
