          • New direct flight from Armenia to Sri Lanka

            For the first time there will be direct flights from Armenia to Sri Lanka. The organizer of the flights is the Armenian Sky&More company. Colombo-Yerevan-Colombo flights will be operated from October 20 once every 9 days.

            Previously, it was possible to reach Sri Lanka exclusively by transit, within 14 hours. Direct regular flights will allow to reach Colombo in 7 hours and 50 minutes. direct flight times are adjusted to make the tour package more competitive, taking into account hotel check-in and check-out times. The presentation organized by Sky&More was personally attended by FITS AIR General Director Ammar Kasim, Aitken Spence Travel Executive Director Nalin Jayasundera.

            The main focus of the Sky&More company is the implementation of new charter flights. It is important to organize author group tours, which will be different from the tourist options of the market.

            Colombo-Yerevan-Colombo flights will be operated from October 20. I wonder which aircraft is going to fly this 7hrs 50mts flight?

                          Even for 6 weeks only, UL is looking for a narrowbody, probably an a320ceo, with two class cabins, to meet their product consistency. EXS is flying for flyadeal in jeddah

                            EXS is only on 3 months wetlease to Flyadeal since Jun23. I think it should return to Fitsair in Sep23.

                            Haleef, can you please confirm if I am correct with above statement?
