Interesting developments here. Was the JAL 777 a charter? Cause I think the Japanese government has its own planes to take diplomats, the prime minister etc... and what about the Ethiopian one? Have no idea about that. I wonder if JAL will eventually start a route to CMB. It seems like there are a fair number of Japanese tourists visiting SL and the Maldives. If they added MLE to that they could surely fill their planes while at the same time making competition with Korean Air.Originally posted by CalgaryLankan View PostFR24 showing Ethiopian 767 ET-AMG leaving CMB short while ago.

Sri Lanka to adopt Open Skies policy
Aviation Deputy Minister Lakshman Yapa Abeywardena yesterday said the government had decided to adopt full Open Skies policy as regards the countries with which Sri Lanka had bilateral air services agreement.
The deputy minister, the Mattala Airport, yesterday said thus some 20 countries which had air services agreement with Sri Lanka could use the Mattala Rajapaksa Airport anytime, while plans were underway to tap more countries through 50 bilateral agreements.
Yapa also said that the government had already given the nod for the Open Skies policy for commercial aircraft operating to and out of Mattala Rajapaksa International Airport, since last month.
The MRIA located in the Southern Province, had a code 4-F runway of 3400 metres in length which was capable of accommodating Airbus A380 aircraft, the Deputy Minister said.
Abeywardena also said that shortly he would present a Cabinet paper to bring down the embarkation tax from USD 25 to USD 10. He also would recommend the duty free allowance to be increased.
