    Regarding the three A340s C5-MIA/B/C, do we know whether anyone at VCBI is actually expecting them? I've noticed ADSB pings from C5-MIB at EYSA in the last couple of weeks but nothing else.

    Maybe they'll go the same way as the four ex-Turkish A343s that were stored at Johannesburg in 2019 then came to life in late 2022 as XT-AKA/B/K/ALM, departed for Uzbekistan but diverted to Tehran.
    In order to close this one off, the three A340s filed flight plans from EYSA to Clark in the Philippines on 29-Feb-24. C5-MIB I assume went tech as it followed on 7-Mar-24. Over Iran they diverted for an unspecified reason and thus never reached Clark, assume they'll appear as EP- soon!

            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

            • Thai Airways first flight

              After a four-year hiatus, Thai Airways made a triumphant return with its inaugural flight TG 307 landing at the Bandaranaike International Airport (BIA) in Katunayake at 11:55 p.m. on Sunday.

              The resumption of this flight route marks a significant milestone in the revitalisation of tourism between Thailand and Sri Lanka. Originating from Bangkok, Thailand, the flight carried around 150 foreign tourists, including Thai nationals eager to explore the beauty and culture of Sri Lanka.​

              He expressed confidence that the resumption of daily flights by Thai Airways would serve as a catalyst for further increasing tourist arrivals.

                            ch-aviation fleets data shows that the Air Belgium A330s are at SriLankan until January and May 2026, respectively, while two of the dry leased A330-300s are due back to their lessors in 2026 and the remaining five during 2027. SriLankan CEO Richard Nuttall has previously spoken of the looming end-lease dates and the pressure that has put on the airline to acquire replacements.

                                Delayed until 8th April due to some documentation issue. Should be resolved soon. Anyways ANF is ready to go once the documentation is alright.
