Not really surprised about that. I've travelled quite a bit to Pakistan and I remember flying out of Karachi---where the airlines that serve booze on board can only do so once the plane is aloft. Obviously PK is a dry airline.

I also remember traveling with a Pakistani colleague back to Pakistan when he wanted to drink a couple more beers before boarding the return flight.

But Pakistan is a bit different - you can get beer there, brewed by Parsees (Murree Brewery), served in your hotel room, provided you're a non-Muslim foreigner. And if you're lucky to visit a private home, your host may serve you Scotch.
