    I was trying to get it but cldnt get a clear view of the reg number it was like 4R-A.. ) ANYWAY I SAW THE BUSINESS CLASS WAS HAVING THE NEW ENTERTAINMENT FACILITY , but the economy class was kind of stone age no personal screens only which was displyed on the main screens n that was displaying plane's status airspeed etc . headphones not provided , i was expecting some nice looking meal but it cam as just a aluminium foil type rice , brinjall and green peace .. and for desert newdale yogurt :P I must admit that when KF was flying this sector there economy class was far far far better than this n there ticket was way less i used to buy kf up n down for LKR 17.000/- when UL was 22,000/- only thing was i flew in a wide body ac after 1997 , my last widebdy exp was cmb- Fukuoka with CX so after a long long time i was sitting in a A 330-200 so had some room than a A 320 or B 737 other than that plan was so bad , but i didnt care abt coz it was a only one hour flight , if it was more than that then seriously it has to be better , but hence they are charging this much they should look after the facility :/

              It's good to see Air China B747 in Colombo. I read on the news that this Chinese VIP visted Sri Lanka on a four day visit starting from 15-Sep to 18-Sep. Does this mean this aircraft (B-2447) was stayed in CMB on those four days? confirm please?

                                I think it's A330. Is this plane flying between East and West ?
