          “The cost for the cancellation of three A350 aircraft are as follows. The deposit placed for the three aircrafts amounting to US$ 7.5 million will be retained by the leasing firm AerCap.
          A further US$ 146.5 will have to be paid in eight installments, with the final installment amounting to 56 million. However, there are some conditions if SriLankan Airlines pays the first seven installments without delay. If the lease on an aircraft that we already have – MSN 627 -is extended, and if the lease on the two narrow-body aircraft which were earlier operated by Mihin Lanka is transferred to SriLankan Airlines, AerCap has agreed to cut off the final installment of 56 million. Thereby, the final payment has reduced to 90.5 million”.

          Its 4R-ALH and 4R-MRE & 4R-MRD that was extended to cancel the A350's.

                • SriLankan has now hired a British re-marketing firm to help lease out its surplus aircraft. These include the three A330-300s that were due to have gone to PIA. The other is an A330-200 that SriLankan was forced to hire from AerCap Holdings NV as part of the settlement for cancelling four A350s ordered by the previous government.

                          Not nowadays. I have transited only twice via CMB. In Sep 2014 and Feb 2015.

                          CJB and HYD have a mix of both O&D and Transit pax with transit being slightly higher than O&D. No Idea about VTZ

                            Correct me if I'm wrong, but I think that (of the two ex-MJ aircraft that are staying with UL), MRE still has an all-Economy configuration (with narrower seats and smaller spaces, compared to the Economy cabins in the other 320s in UL's fleet). And, even though MRD does have a Business class section, it has a much more cramped configuration with regards to both classes (compared to the other 321s in UL's fleet).
                            MRE definitely has J class. One of my friend traveled on it and he mentioned there were 12 J seats.

                            Can anyone of you exactly say how many economy seats does MRE have?

                              If MRE now has a J Class cabin, it must have been re-configured, recently because it was a single-cabin aircraft when it was with MJ (and all online records of this aircraft still show it as having 180 Y seats, only).

                              Anyway, it's good to know that it has been re-configured.

                              I assume that MRD is still with the 12+188 configuration that it had when it was with MJ... please let me know if I'm wrong.
