Flawless traffic arrangements were witnessed from Lahore Airport to SOS Village, SOS Village to National Cricket Academy, National Cricket Academy to Lahore Fort, Lahore Fort to Shaukat Khanum Hospital and Shoukat Khanum Hospital to Lahore Airport.

However, others appreciated the arrangements for the royal couple.
