ABN - undergoing a maintenance check.
ALL - undergoing C check.
ALT - expect her arrival mid Oct .
Do you know when ABN, ALL, ANB, AND, ANE are going to return for flying revenue flights?
Any reason why ALT delivery was delayed by the month? will it get SriLankan livery when it's delivered to UL? Mr.Arranz mentioned in our forum earlier there are some cabin work going on in ALT. I noticed on FR24 unknown A333 was due to fly from TEV to SAW earlier this week. But seems it never happened. Was thinking whether it was ALT.

After completing the wet-lease agrreement with Air Arabia, 4R-EXR was ferried from SHJ to DXB as 8D7 on the 26-Sep and operated from DXB to CMB as revenue flight 8D822 on the 27-Sep. Such a sensible decision to bring back both the aircraft & crew in CMB with revenue flight. Good job 8D and Mr. Peter Hill ! I see 4R-EXR is flying 8D flights since 29-Sep.
Mr Hill likes if EXR is flying for G9 until November. But it didnt happen.
All three aircrafts will get similar cabin interior and brandnew seats (probably the seat manufacturer will be UK based Mirus) by mid 2025.
CMB MLE CMB flights frequency will be increased from November 2024.
currently 8D is flying to MLE twice on somedays. Flight numbers will be 8D811/2, 8D813/4, 8D815/6.
8D is targeting a new routes, probably KUL or IXM.
No plans for new aircrafts since current fleet utilization is lower.
