The outage affected the Jinnah International Airport's lighting, air-conditioning, conveyor belts and immigration counters. Passengers from home and abroad were stranded in the waiting area, while their luggage could not be transferred from the planes either. 

Long queues of passengers formed at the immigration counters, where manual processing was being done.

Sources said that the Civil Aviation Authority (CAA) was trying to restore the power supply with the help of generators.
