The Islamabad Airport transfer should remain possible without mobile data. Save the pickup point, driver, vehicle, accommodation and Islamabad–Rawalpindi map before the flight.
NoveSIM Pakistan plans are data-only and can support maps and app communication after registration.
The route may involve both Islamabad and Rawalpindi, so the offline map should cover the wider metropolitan area.
Quick answer: Activate the travel line in the terminal, verify the arranged vehicle through the original booking channel, load the saved route and leave only after the pickup details match.

Connect before Leaving the Terminal

Match the driver, vehicle and meeting point with the original booking. Do not accept an unsolicited replacement solely because the person knows the destination.
Plan for Islamabad and Rawalpindi
Transfers and accommodation may involve both cities. Keep both maps ready and read the Islamabad city guide.
If Data Fails
Use the saved meeting point, verified airport Wi-Fi or staffed assistance. Do not delete the eSIM. Follow the canonical arrival guide.
