    Well the following site says that SriLankan will replace its A343 fleet from the end of 2010 with newer A343s (which seems to indicate that ADA will be replaced). That said UL's plans change a lot and it may need another widebody to expand its long haul flights.


    BTW sorry I took so long to join this forum, been quite busy since December.

      @umedhah @longranger ADA is Asia's 1st. And ADB,C 2nd and 3rd. All existing five are presently on sked up to April. ILFC has not disclosed a delivery date.

        Thanks, Kflyer. I have found the picture of 4R-ADG (http://www.planespotting.net/fleetli...0-300&r=117020) on Planespotting.net, which was taken in 2004. What actually happened to this aircraft now ? As far as I know SriLankan Airlines has A340s on regs : ADA, ADB, ADC, ADE and ADF. Unfortunately ADD destroyed in Terrorism.

            Probably this is 4R-ADC where C looks like G due to some artifact in the picture. ADG was never recorded in the history except this one place.

              According to Kflyer's statement in A.Net, MSN381 is currently undergoing pre-delivery refurbishment at XMN.

              PIA Pakistan (PK) plans to resume Malé and operate it with Colombo as Triangular flights.

              As per SABRE Flight Systems, SriLankan increases Karachi flights from four weekly to five weekly effective 27 March 2011.

              Crystal Thai Airlines plans to operate Bangkok to Colombo to Dubai route soon. Does Colombo to Dubai route still have an enough bileteral to increase flights ?

                      @ LiangHKG - Firstly of all I wish you a Happy Chinese NewYear. Thanks for posting the picture of MSN 381 from TAECO Maintanance base in Xiamen. I think the picture you posted probably shoted prior repainting as some of the windows are covered in plastic. Do you know when MSN 381 will be repainted in SriLankan Airlines livery ? or is it already done ?

                      @ Serendib - SriLankan already has started Guangzhou flights on the 28th January 2011.

                      Interesting to know SriLankan is once again planning to re-commence Australia flights (i think the reporter meant re-commencement in 2011). Do you think SriLankan can make this in real ? BTW SriLankan said they will launch Moscow flights once they have obtained the additional widebody? Does anybody have an update on this ?

                      Whats happening with 4R-ABL ?

                        Is their enough room to handle those aircraft's at CMB? It's getting Busy right... I'm living just about 300 meters away from the runway! I can hear alot of aircrafts taking off & landing...! I don't think that they have any Idea about building a new terminal! any Idea about that?

                          I am wondering why the major airlines in Europe,have still not started flying to BIA.
                          Airlines like,British airways,Air France,Lufthansa,Aeroflot,KLM.

                          Any news on the above Airlines

                                Any idea why SriLankan got aircraft with CFM engines from Sahaab if they are ordering more IAE A320s? Also is UL going to replace their older A340s with newer ones? There dont seem to be very many newer A343s on the market now (theyve already snapped up one of the better ones from CX). Also I noted that four of the A343s are owned by Veling. Does that mean that when it comes to fleet replacement they will have to replace all 4 (even though one is newer)?
