The first Revenue flight is to Canton on the 9th of November.. Then later on to Narita -
I hope you're aware that Malaysia Airlines cutting flights to Europe and it's going to codeshare with their Oneworld parter SriLankan on the Europe routes. So I am thinking SriLankan better take advantage over Malaysia Airlines's current situation and grab the opportunity to transport the Australian passengers to Europe via CMB.Originally posted by flylanka View Post
All of the SriLankan's brand new A333s are configured with 28 Business class seats, so SriLankan can make money out of the high-spenders. SriLankan currently planned to operate the brand-new A333s to destination where is the good demand for business class. We can expect all these new A333s will be utilised to serve mainly Orient and Far East destinations like Tokyo, Beijing, Shanghai, Guangzhou, Bangkok, Hong Kong etc.. You can't compare Air India with SriLankan. In my opnion Air India is one of the worst airline in the world.. even if they operate the new B787s etc. Still most of the overseas passengers loved to fly with SriLankan.Comment

UL and MJ should avoid flying to same destinations.....Sri Lanka's other state-owned airline, Sri Lankan Airlines, will likely begin its own direct service to Kathmandu once it completes renewal of its long-haul fleet, the ambassador said.Comment

Wow.....i wonder if UL is gonna get the Oneworld livery on any of the A333s?Originally posted by Serendib View PostComment

Yes. UL better take delivery of one A333 with Oneworld livery. It will be expensive if they repaint the A333 in Colombo.Originally posted by dilushasg-bdavi View PostComment

Malaysia Airlines may cancel some European flights & reduce some Australia routes effective S15. As per my knowledge, in the codeshare agreement, one of the leg has to be operated by one of the codeshare partner. In this case MH doesn't operate direct flights to Doha so they can't codeshare on European destinations out of Doha using QR metal.Originally posted by lordvader View Post
So I think it's a good chance for UL to launch direct flights to Australia!!
PETALING JAYA - Malaysian Airlines System Bhd is expected to cut as much as 25% of the capacity of its network in 2015, which would spell bad news for Malaysia Airports Holdings Bhd (MAHB) as 2.2 million seats vanish from its airports, all of which are international passengers that provide the highest revenue per passenger.
Maybank Investment Bank Research analyst Moshin Aziz estimates MAS, which had indicated plans to focus on regional routes within the sphere of Asia and Australia, to terminate up to six international routes namely Paris, Amsterdam, Frankfurt, Istanbul, Dubai and Kunming.
He also reckons that MAS to further cut or reduce another routes – Sydney, Melbourne, Darwin, Brisbane, Kochi and Osaka – as part of its restructuring plan.
"We estimate as many as 18-19 aircraft will need to be taken out of the fleet due to these route cuts alone. For MAHB, this is bad news as 2.2 million seats will vanish from its airports, all of which are international passengers that provide the highest revenue per pax," he said in his report last Thursday.

Srilankan should also consider resuming flights to Amsterdam at least 3 times per week. Same as Frankfurt, it is a good transit point for European and North American passengers.Originally posted by banuthev View PostComment

Agreed, what I've always thought! This year and even last year, they had more Dutch nationals visit the country than Italians (where UL flies) and Switzerland (Where UL has been flying on an off). I am sure that by the end of 2016, KLM will announce flights to Sri Lanka. With its amount of connections it has within Europe and North America, it will be a successful, potentially more so than if UL commenced on the route.Originally posted by channa View PostComment
