According to the Airline Route blog, Pakistan International Airlines (PIA) will be cancelling its twice weekly
services to Amsterdam and Frankfurt from 7th September. One flight per week is served as a triangular routing Lahore-Amsterdam-Frankfurt-Lahore on Fridays utilizing one of PIA's 12 Airbus A310-300 aircraft, while the other weekly flight is routed Islamabad -Frankfurt-Amsterdam-Islamabad on Tuesdays, also using Airbus A310s.

PIA has been serving Amsterdam and Frankfurt on-and-off since the early 1970s, and at one point had flights between Frankfurt and New York JFK.
