Hi WDR, Many thanks for the update! Its a good news! Do you think Aeroflot could profitably operate on SVO-CMB-SVO route with 5 weekly A330-300?Originally posted by WDR View PostComment

Personally I don’t see the feasibility in operating a A333 on this route... an A321 would do in my opinionOriginally posted by banuthev View Post
How are the visa formalities though ? Any restrictions to Russia ? are transit visas required etc ?Comment

Transit visa isn't required for a transit under 24 hours. A lot Indians use Aeroflot for onward connections to JFK and IAD.Originally posted by Aaqib View PostComment

That's quite a different story than the recent "imminent arrest" story.Originally posted by Serendib View Post
Just a big show imho - there's more than enough evidence against these people.
I take it Suren has left with all his ill-gotten gains? I bet he got everything he was asking.Always fly a stable approach - it's the only stability you'll find this businessComment

FitsAir to acquire a Cessna 208 Grand Caravan
One of Sri Lanka's Pioneer Private Airlines FitsAir is all set to acquire a Cessna 208 Grand Caravan
With GoSL spearheading efforts to promote Domestic Aviation, FitsAir looks to stay ahead of its competition and thereby going for an aircraft familiar to them
Any news regarding their ATR72-500?Comment

FitsAir already had two C208 right ? I thought CAA wants the domestic airlines to use 50 seater aircraft? I wonder why FitsAir wants another 9 seater C208.Originally posted by Aaqib View PostComment

Which small aircraft is going to replace those four A350-900s?Originally posted by Serendib View PostComment

Ideally they should get at least a few A330 800/900 NEOs to replace the aging 332s. Either way, the Govt will have to pay the total cost committed to AB for the 4 359s and the negotiations probably are about what combination/numbers of "smaller" aircraft UL will we get for this price.Originally posted by banuthev View Post
A quick calculation based on the 2018 list prices as per Wikipedia, 5 A330-800 NEOs will cost the same as 4 A350-900sLast edited by leyland; 24-08-2018, 05:14 AM.Comment
