Hi Banu I prefer 350 over 787 😎 -
I suspect they would use the 787-10; the 359 on a short hop might not make sense.Originally posted by Speedbird View PostComment

Govt. ends search for foreign partner for Srilankan
The Government has decided to stop looking for a foreign partner for the national carrier SriLankan Airlines, informed sources said.
Accordingly, sources said the new plan is to hand SriLankan over to a local public-private venture.
This decision had been reached after listening to the views expressed by trade unions and employees of SriLankan and government advisors.

I see Kabir Hashim has quietly left his post. He's an insider so he knows what's coming.Newly appointed Minister of State Enterprise Development Lakshman Kiriella is expected to monitor the affairs of the national carrier. (Yohan Perera).

I guess he doesn't want his name attached to the shutdown. Typical Politician who only cares about saving his own skin!
Rats leaving the sinking ship!

SriLankan is to lease 3 Airbus A330-300 aircraft to Turkish Airlines. Everything has been planned and is ready it seems.Comment

Any reason why does the 3 x A333s are going to be sub-leased again to different airline? hopefully not another controversial deal like the one with PIA.Originally posted by Haleef View PostComment

That means most of the routes they will use A332 or A32x neo air crafts.Originally posted by banuthev View Post
In future I will avoid UL now itself it’s not worth flying them like Hkg CX offering flat bed business class UL offering cradle seats Almost same price,
The airlines like Jet or Thai also offering Flat bed with medium range fare.
So UL will have old air crafts for Srilankan passengers instead of good onesComment

Iam not sure Turkish Airlines might need UL A333. Might be Onur Air,Originally posted by Haleef View Post
Because Turkish Airlines has enough of A332&A333
If this UL A333 goes to Onur then the usage and Maintaince will be v badComment

What I herd from my friend who worked as QA Engineer, the delivery probably happened in May. As per the him they are facing lots of engine related issues in NEOs.Originally posted by banuthev View PostComment

A 332 are old and this means customer service is going to get deteriorated. Can UL manage their existing routes after leasing out 3- A333.Originally posted by banuthev View PostComment

True, but then the same question goes to us too. I highly doubt that passengers will find a comfortable flight on the A330-200 than the A330-300. I still can't understand why they need to lease out 3 new aircraft to another owner.Originally posted by channa View PostComment
