A PIA Pakistan International Airlines Airbus A320-200, registration AP-BLA performing flight PK-451 from Islamabad to Skardu (Pakistan), was climbing out of Islamabad's runway 30 when the crew stopped the climb at FL150 reporting a hydraulic failure and decided to return to Islamabad. The aircraft entered a hold while the crew worked the checklists and burned off fuel, the aircraft subsequently positioned for a landing on runway 30, touched down safely at 13:35L (08:35Z) but veered right off the runway and came to a stop with all gear on soft ground. There were no injuries, the aircraft however received foreign object damage to one of the engines (CFM56).
The airline confirmed the aircraft developed hydraulic problems and therefore returned to Islamabad.
