May be leases hasn't come to the expiry date yet? Is ABQ going to leave UL fleet next and join Privilage Style Airlines as the airline is looking for another A321 after adding ABR in their fleet.Originally posted by 4R-ALA View PostComment

The airline is saddled with three unwanted ancient Airbus A330-200 wide-bodied aircraft due an erroneous, arbitrary and unilateral extension of lease agreements by the CEO. Total lease cost for three aircraft six-year lease period amounts to USD 54.54 million. This transaction will "weaken the balance sheet" annually whilst the culprit, recruited for a princely salary of Rs 3 million plus perks, is not disciplined. To be fair, a majority of directors objected to CEO’s decision. They were overruled by a cabinet sub-committee. As a result, this costly mistake was not discussed during the meeting between Board members and CEO with the President, Prime Minister and cabinet of ministers last Tuesday.

SriLankan Airlines to get US$150mn cash injection in 2020: PM
ECONOMYEXT – State-run SriLankan Airlines would get a 150 million dollar cash injection in 2020 which would be part of a 500 million dollar to be injected in the medium term, Prime Minister and Finance Mahinda Rajapaksa said.
SriLankan has been badly hit by a Coronavirus crises but it is running relief flights, cargo flights to make money.
SriLankan had been making losses ever since its managing shareholder Emirate Airlines was removed and the privatization reversed in 2008.
However Prime Minister Rajapaksa blamed the last administration for not injecting cash to the airline.
“Due to the suspension in 2015 of the 2013 commenced programme to strengthen the SLA by infusing capital of USD 500 million over 5 years, and the subsequent efforts to privatize the SLA, has made it financially weak,” he said in parliament.
The government has presented an Appropriation Bill to gain approval for spending made before the new parliament was elected and to get approval for expenses for the rest of the year. (Colombo/Nov12/2020)
