  • VT-PPL (Airbus A321) operated the newly timed MAA-CMB flight today
    DEP @ 0600, ARR @ 0720

    She'll now operate the inaugural AI276 flight from Colombo to New Delhi.

    I wish AI all the best on their new flight, and hopefully they last longer than Jet Airways on this route!

            Ah, thanks for clarifying!
            I believe this is the second time an A380 has landed in Colombo - first also being an Emirates bird?

              I think that was the 3 rd EK 380 landing in Colombo.

                            • Looks like the inaugural CMB-CCU flight will be done by the A319... So much for the A321! :/

                                Colombo - Kolkota Flight Schedule

                                CMB-CCU - MJ331 - 07:05 - 10:00 - 1 5
                                CMB-CCU - MJ331 - 11:20 - 14:15 - 3

                                Do you think CMB-CCU route will become successful for Mihin Lanka? and any update of merging Mihin with SriLankan?

                                It seems to be Mihin didn't sell much tickets on Kolkota flight. I am curious to know the number of passengers were on board? Issue is Mihin's Kolkota flight is targeting Gulf passengers not the far east.
