          Seems like it, they have been struggling to operate MLE-CMB flights for awhile now due to 8Q-IAN (their sole A320) being stored, their ATRs and DH8s are unable to operate the flights due to sufficient amount of pax on that route, they simply can't accommodate that many passengers on small regional planes, but Q2 can't also deploy it's new A332 on the route since it is not practical, EK, UL, 8D, GF, OQ and MU already operate flights between MLE-CMB.Someone please correct me If I am wrong or if there is any other reason as to why they have ended the route.

          I recall the last time I saw Q2 operating was around 5 weeks ago and that was on their ATRs.

            Hello, most people who travel on CMB-RUH and CMB-DMM sectors are Sri Lankan Expats who travel to Saudi and other gulf states for work purposes, as far as I am aware, Passenger load on those sectors are good, especially during winter season because of Sri Lankans returning home after working. So far Pax load on CMB-RUH is around 90% on average and CMB-DMM is around 85%.
            ​
            I am quite surprised to see UL is using only A321neo to RUH instead of usual A332/A333 in Feb25. Any reason?

              JAF expansions and developments are more than about the runway extensions, its about all new international terminal, parallel taxiway, and runway extension as I got informed. Hingurakgoda runway expansion is just like BTC Runway expansions according to international standard, which means Hingurakgoda won't become an international airport like at least RML or HRI. Cannot guess anything Bcz its all upto Government decisions.
              I see Alliance Air no longer flying MAA-JAF. Currently IndiGo only flying MAA-JAF route with Daily freq. But I heard IndiGo going to terminate MAA-JAF flights and planning to start BLR-JAF flights instead. Any reason why?

                FZ also flying daily between CMB and MLE.

                I guess Q2 couldn't make the route work as it couldn't transport cargo between CMB and MLE ever since their A320 stored in KUL in Sep24. May be thats the reason Q2 wetleased BBN Air B73F to transport committed cargo on CMB-MLE from end of Sep to end of Dec24. May be Q2 carried some pax on ATR infrequently until termination. May be i am wrong.

                      Hi All,
                      8D is looking for a fleet expansion and a network expansion, New destinations can be RUY (via DXB), BKK, SHJ, TRV, DOH, CCJ. Regarding the fleet expansion : it can be Ex-Lufthansa A320ceos, not info regarding the numbers, this is still under discussion. No time frame for all of these.

                        Hi Maw, Not sure about the load factors or demand. but it seems currently 6E is flying Daily ATR flights on MAA-JAF and DP Aviation is flying twice a weekly C208 flights on RML-JAF

                          Thanks, Nice to hear expansion from 8D. will 8D have 4th freedom rights to carry pax between DXB and RUH. I heard DXB-RUH is one of the profitable route.
                          I see HYD also listed as destination for 8D. Is 8D planning to fly HYD near future?
                          Any update on seat config for 8D current fleet?

                            Hi Banu,

                            Yes I missed HYD, probably CCJ will be removed from the list. And also there is a possibility of ACMI operations with another middle east carrier.

                            Current Seat config :

                            4R-EXQ : 8Y+ 150Y
                            4R-EXR : 8Y+ 150Y
                            4R-EXS : 180Y

                              Thanks, Any update on 8D A320s getting new cabin and seats?
