    They are training/recruiting cadets. They are losing people faster than they can replace them. 65+ people represents 3 years training capacity.

    It's the best people who are leaving - met one of them in Paris a few months ago. No Airline can afford to have this happen.

    You can't replace experienced Captains with cadets.
    Always fly a stable approach - it's the only stability you'll find this business

More leg room is essential for these A32Series as they are operating overnight flights to Kuala Lumpur, Bangkok, Singapore, Mumbai, Muscat, Abu Dhabi and Dubai. These former Qatar A321s going to be leased for four years and they will be replaced by A321 NEOS in the future. 4R-ABR is going to replace 4R-ABJ. Do you know which airline is going to take over 4R-ABJ ?

      I heard Stansted based Titan Airways to take delivery of SriLankan's 4R-ABJ in November 2014.

        Thanks

                  British Airways says the decision to cancel flights to Sri Lanka was not related to political issues in Sri Lanka but purely on non-profitability : http://colombogazette.com/2014/10/12...nd-lanka-move/

                    ok let not get mixed up; political issues above ref: to "concerns over Sri Lanka’s human rights record" not LHR - CMB route
