        Maybe A3210, msn 5310 is the other Fits Air A320 mentioned a while ago? It is still at CMB. By the way has A320 msn 3547 been registered in Sri Lanka?

                I thought before Four x A350 order are going to converted into A330-900neo and A321LRs?

                            In this interview Vipula states that in the next 1.5 -2 years, 6 aircrafts in the UL fleet will be leaving and it would be 3 wide bodies and 3 narrow bodies.
                            what do you guys think about which aircrafts are going to be retired?
                            ( I think the wide bodies are: 4R- ALA, ALB &ALC and A320ceos)

                              I can understand the fact that they would be retiring the older A330-200’s which would be ultimately replaced by the A359’s but why the A320ceo’s?

                                I'm presuming that the current management want to operate an "all Neo" fleet. So with 6 aircrafts retiring in the next 2 years and with the plan of expanding the fleet to 34 ; we will see 16 new aircrafts joining UL.
                                P.S - All of this will depend with pandemic 🤞
