The plane, a flight from Karachi to Islamabad operated by the private airline Airblue, came down in hills north the city as it was about to land.
There is no word on the cause of the crash. At the time the area was shrouded in fog.
Pakistani TV showed images of smouldering wreckage on a foggy hillside, with helicopters overhead.
