        * Etihad increases CMB from 10 weekly to 13 weekly from May 2024 and 19 weekly in June 2024
        * Cathay Pacific passenger flight is due to arrive at CMB today after 4 years of absence. Any update?

        It seems Indigo is going to terminate HYD-CMB flights from Summer 2024.
        Spicejet to discontinue MAA-CMB daily flights from 30 Mar 2024.

                So China Eastern will be operating 12 weekly flights into CMB from China? (1 daily from PVG and 5 weekly from KMG?)

                      Thought 4R-ALA & B was on the end of flying cycles and to be scrapped. Very interesting these two birds have been re-registered. Are they going to fly again?

                      4R-ALA is now LY-BMO

                        No, for maintenance checks. If I'm not mistaken most of the aircraft in the fleet will be flown out of CMB for maintenance in the couple of months.
