A318/19/20/21 are all considered as a single aircraft type by most countries

Most of the airline uses aircraft code "A32S" for the flights being served by A318/A319/A320/A321. This concept helps the airline to utilise the aircraft for the right flight depends on how many tickets sold for the flight. A319 may support Mihin for operating Pilgrim flights i.e. Gaya & Varanasi.

Mihin Lanka will go ahead with two x B737-800s which are going to be leased from Air Lease Corp in 2016. B737-800 is a good tool for serving reachable secondary destinations in China from Sri Lanka.

this is my suggestion, UL must or at last try to beat with Indian airline market n get much more destinations in south asia , easily they can make CMB the best hum for south east asia . right now BOM n DEL is doing that job connecting the whole world . i think UL MUST MAKE MUCH MORE DESTINATIONS IN SOUTH EAST ASIA . SO I GUESS a319 OR A318 will be a good option . currently AI opperates long haul destinations such as JFK /MEL but from my experience UL can offer much more customer satisfied service than AI . SO i suggest tht UL must increase indian destinations and bring them to cmb and connect them to the rest of the world .

If mihin wants to try new destination with A319 hear are few destinations they should think about

CMB - HYD
CMB - GOI
CMB - CCJ
CMB - KTM - PBH
CMB - VNS
