Rahim Yar Khan has an airport

Sheikh Zayed International serves the city with domestic flights. On a nine hour journey the bus usually wins on cost, but if you are pricing a Business fare at Rs 3,800 it is worth a look.

Sadiqabad is the next town back

Sadiqabad sits about an hour short on the same road. If departure times here are awkward, that timetable is worth checking.


Where the split stops paying

Close enough to Sukkur that booking through wins

Sukkur is the interchange that makes long Punjab journeys from Quetta workable. Rahim Yar Khan is near enough that the trick stops being useful.

TO SUKKUR

Rs 1,600, six hours

The cheapest and best served leg out of Quetta in any direction.

TO RAHIM YAR KHAN

Rs 2,200, nine hours

Three hours further for about Rs 600 more, on a through ticket.

THE ARITHMETIC

Splitting costs more

Two tickets plus a connection beats one ticket only on much longer journeys.

Book the through service

The Sukkur split is a real technique for Lahore or Gujranwala, but not for here. At three hours beyond the interchange the through fare barely exceeds the sum of its parts, and you keep your seat rather than gambling on a connection. Save the split for journeys where the second leg is longer than the first.

Choosing an operator

Which is the best bus service from Quetta to Rahim Yar Khan?

Nine hours overnight, where the class earns its price.

BEST VALUE

Super Mekhtar

Air conditioned economy at Rs 2,200, an hour behind the quickest.

BEST BALANCE

Baloch Transport

Executive at Rs 2,900, the sensible overnight seat on this corridor.

BEST COMFORT

Faisal Movers

Business at Rs 3,800 with 30 kg, worth it with luggage or for the onward network.

The honest recommendation

Take Baloch Transport executive at about Rs 2,900 overnight. Nine hours seated in economy for Rs 700 less is a poor trade when the whole point of the overnight run is arriving able to use the day. Faisal Movers at Rs 3,800 makes sense only if you are connecting further into Punjab on the same ticket.
