Loads not good is the most common reasons. You're right though target daily utilization for a LCC should be at least 12 hours but you can possibly get 16 (especially with a newer fleet). Typical utilization for Sunwing (Canadian LCC) sees the airplane depart at 0630 and back from final rotation around 0150 the next day (with 1 hr turns): roughly about 16 hours with a 73H or 7M8. The speed of the DH4 will give it comparable blocks to the 320 up to 250 nm. Interestingly the block time on the Dh4 to Montreal from Toronto Island (YTZ) is about 10-15 minutes less than the equivalent journey from Pearson (YYZ) on the Buses or 737s. -

The country is targeting half a million Chinese tourists in 2024, nearly double its pre-Covid visitor levels, Tourism Minister Harin Fernando said at a press briefing in Beijing on Monday.Comment

SriLankan Airlines tenders for one A320/1ceo dry-lease
SriLankan has issued a Request for Proposals for the six-year dry-lease of a single A320-200 or A321-200.
The aircraft has to be 15 years of age or younger at the moment of delivery, which is tentatively expected in December 2023. SriLankan is also open to bids from its current lessors to extend the contracts on their existing aircraft by another six years.
The financially ailing state-owned carrier issued another RFP for five second-hand A320 Family aircraft and five second-hand A330 Family aircraft in December 2022.

Israeli Airlines allowed to operate in Sri Lanka
The Cabinet of Ministers today (30 May) has granted approval for Akira Airlines, Israeli based airline to operate in Sri Lanka
Earlier, the airline was not allowed to commence flights from Sri Lanka due to security reasons; Airlines had two security guards in the planes – this was not permitted in Sri Lanka due to security reasons.
Minister of Tourism Harin Fernando stated that the approval was given after much consideration subject to certain conditions. Security personnel in the plane could only operate inside the plane and are not allowed to act outside of it. Furthermore, the airline will be required to follow similar security protocols to countries such as Dubai when setting up its office in Sri Lanka.
