On a two hour run, frequency beats comfort

The gap between the cheapest and dearest seat here is Rs 800, and the journey is barely two hours. That makes this a route where the bus leaving in fifteen minutes is worth more than the better bus leaving in an hour. Book ahead only if you are travelling at a peak commuting time or on a public holiday.


The traffic

An export city on Lahore’s doorstep

Sialkot’s surgical instrument, sports goods and leather industries generate constant business travel to Lahore, and that commercial traffic is what sustains the frequency.

BUSINESS

Daily commercial travel

Exporters, buyers and suppliers moving between the two cities every working day. This is the traffic that fills the early morning and evening departures.

AIRPORT

Sialkot International

Sialkot has its own international airport serving the Gulf, so some passengers on this corridor are connecting to or from a flight rather than staying in the city.

CARGO

Freight alongside passengers

Several operators run cargo on this corridor at published per kilogram rates, which is worth knowing if you are moving samples or small consignments.

Book ahead only at peak times

With departures through the day and a journey of barely two hours, advance booking is rarely necessary on this route. The exceptions are the early morning business block, the Friday evening return, and public holidays, when the corridor fills up like any other.
