    I think the A321neo which is joining the UL fleet in 1st week of July is going to be used on these new CZB, VTZ, HYD flights. Do you know where do these CZB, VTZ and HYD passengers are going to fly out of CMB ?

    Current SriLankan Airlines Destinations in India :

    Bengaluru, Bodh Gaya, Chennai. Delhi, Kochi, Kolkota, Madurai, Mumbai, Trichy, Trivandrum, Varanasi
    Actually except Vizhag, the other two are service resumption. Sri Lankan Airlines used to flies to Coimbatore and Hyderabad until December 2008.

    Ref

    Good to see some new destination. Regional expansion is prefer before the long and ultra long routes.

                  4R-ALA is not yet active on revenue flights since it was taken for a C check as mentioned here before.
                  4R-ALC last flight as per flighradar24 was on 29th march
                  4R-ALJ is also inactive for over 2 weeks now

                  Any update...

                    Please advise where did you hear UL have cancelled 5 x A359s? As far as I know UL initially ordered 4 x A359 on lease from Aercap and another 4 x A359 from Airbus but UL cancelled all 4 x A359 with Aercap and 4 x A359 with Airbus not been cancelled.

                      As per lessor SASOF, leases of old 3 x A332s have been extended by UL. Must be ALA, ALB, ALC are those old 3 x A332s.

                      Hi CSButterflyeffect - Any updates on lease returns of A332 fleet ?

                        I agree UL cant make profit with current aircraft fleet which were acquired on high lease rates. But UL needs good management so it can avoid further losses and wrong decisions.

                                SriLankan in another legal battle — this time with duty-free product supplier
                                http://www.sundaytimes.lk/170402/news/srilankan-in-another-legal-battle-this-time-with-duty-free-product-supplier-235190.html


                                It appears that they are going to try, again to lease out three of the new 333s, along with one 332 (which I think is the least old one - ALH).

                                However, considering that the recent lease of ALN to PK caused several problems, I feel that it might be more profitable to just start more routes, so that all of the available aircraft (and extra staff) can be well utilized...

                                In addition to the concrete plans to start servicing VTZ, CJB, HYD and MEL, there has also been talk about servicing AMD, SLL, RGN and JNB, as well as increasing the number of flights to DEL, BOM and LHR. So, obviously, more aircraft are going to be needed, anyway.

                                Also - places like CCJ, MRU, IKA, XIY, and either FRA or MUC would probably be viable, too (personally, I think that MUC makes more sense than FRA due to equally good connection options for passengers from Canada and the U.S. at MUC, while better time-slot options and lower fees are likelier at MUC, compared to FRA).

                                Anyway, this idea of leasing and re-leasing relatively newer aircraft is a bit saddening.
