    Probably because UL does not have a small enough aircraft to operate to JAF, we just have to wait and see since hopefully JAF airport will be getting expanded soon with a longer runway and more facilities, which could mean that UL could deploy an A320. I'm not really sure but we just have to see.

    I don't think Sri Lanka is developed enough for domestic air travel, don't get me wrong, The only reason that domestic flights don't really work in SL is because of the price and the undeveloped facilities, since flights can go up to 200USD almost and it just makes sense to take the train rather than fly to JAF. However, if prices reduce in the coming years, from 200 to 100 (round trip) then I believe it would be possible.
    Thanks WizzWaveSien! You're absolutely right ! Is JAF going to expand runway to accomodate A320 type aircraft? any update?

    Nuttall noted the potential for operating UL flights to Jaffna once its airport can accommodate A320 aircraft, asserting that support from AAI will be essential to make this plan possible. Sri Lankan Airlines has launched its ad campaign, Colours of Jaffna, to promote Jaffna as the next major tourism destination.
