    ALH and ALN both were taken in for C-checks months ago. Lots of patch work and repairs were done on it, including painting. ALH is nearly done now, probably a test flight will happen soon. ALN is now being worked on. Expect to see ALH flying soon again.
    Engine Run being done on ALH right now. When it's going to fly its Test flight? Is ALH still carrying the Oneworld livery after recent paint work?

      I think they will paint An A330-300 with oneworld livery soon, as the current -200s are on their way to retirement

      • What are your ideas about the Selling the Srilankan airlines to another airline?
        Personally I think it's gonna be a big mistake 👀

          AUH-HRI - 13:25 - 19:40 - MO.WE.FR
          HRI-AUH - 20:40 - 00:55+1 - MO.WE.FR

          Could Wizzair be able to sustain on this route for long?

          In the past Air Arabia, FlyDubai & RotanaJet operated between UAE and Mattala, but the flight didn't last long.
          Means they are keep on postponing the flight since last year

            I think selling is the best option , Because Government own airlines are mostly running at a lost, If Rajapaksa back in power airline might die

              Why did Wizz postpone HRI last year?

                In my humble opinion, UL better paint the oneworld livery on the A330 which is going to be delivered this year on 6 years lease (lease expires in 2029). Please note current A333s (ALL to ALR) are leaving the fleet in 2026/2027).

                Please correct me if im wrong?

                • CAPA says " Oman Air reportedly leased slots at London Heathrow Airport and Dubai International Airport to FitsAir for the summer 2023 season" :

                  https://centreforaviation.com/news/o...r-2023-1192769
                  Is it good idea Fitsair flying Colombo-Dubai- London Heathrow route?

                  Azamh Aaqib Gayan28 SKYBUCK729 and other team members: Please share your opinion. Its good opportunity for Fitsair to test the route

                    Why Kuwait Airways and Saudia doesn't fly to Colombo?
                    SV and KU up to November no schedule

                    • I think UL can consider getting some un used A350 from Hainan airlines or hk airlines they can start Cmb-Lhr-yyz and jfk

                      • Batik Air Malaysia is going to fly Colombo from Kuala Lumpur effective 12 May 2023 onboard B737 MAX 8.

                        Here is the Flight Schedule

                        KUL-CMB - 17:25 - 18:25 - DAILY
                        CMB-MLE - 19:25 - 20:30 - DAILY

                        Any reason Malaysia-Sri Lanka route is getting popular this quickly? Currently being served by SriLankan, Air Asia, Malaysian and From 12 May Batik Air joins the KUL-CMB route.

                            In a 320-200, no.

                            I like to see Fits Air flying Singapore or Bangkok routes because there aren't any budget airlines.

                              You're absolutely correct ! It's only UL is flying on BKK route with 8 weekly and UL have 7 weekly and SQ have 4 weekly on CMB-SIN route. Why Fitsair still grounded 4R-EXQ? I wonder what's the next new destination for Fitsair?

                              I wonder why Thai Airways and Thai Air Asia doesn't fly to Colombo ?

                              Sadnews ! Air France may not come back to Colombo next winter. Colombo has been removed from AF schedule in NW23. Why CMB didn't work well for AF?

                                SriLankan A332 4R-ALA is flying until 31-Mar-23. Is it the final UL flight for 4R-ALA?
