    Yes of course ADE is currently withdrawn from the service .... Actually it was in the first week of August.
    ALO came after a week so the absence of ADE is not much of a problem. Besides schedules are designed in such a way that even if an aircraft is grounded they can arrange a replacement. Sometimes there are 2 parallel C checks in the hangar and they still
    Manage to continue the service as usual.
    UL is using 4R-MRE quite frequently http://www.flightradar24.com/data/airplanes/4r-mre

    is this due to the aircraft shortage?

                I hope they will consider UL too.

                  Is Rakhita Jayawardena (current CEO for UL) doing well on his role ? Is Peter Hill still part of UL or he left?

                    I think Mr Hill just came in as a consultant. must have left UL already ?

                    they may keep Mr Jaywaradane further as CEO. But COO position is still to be filled or?

                        Interesting info Banu. Is UL good at timetable optimization with minimum turnaround times particularly with these new birds?

                        (BTW your table need a small correction - the dates in the first column is not matching the arrival dates

                        • Seems like a good usage of the new aircraft. Like others have said, I am surprised FCO isn't included, as I would think the load factor would be good on that route. I was also surprised that RUH was not featured on this timetable. Is Saudia stealing the majority of passengers on that route since they are utilizing the 744 to CMB? Still a pity YMML isn't a go anymore. I don't know when a better time would be to start that route with the sparkling new A333, considering it has the most Sri Lankans of any city outside of SL...

                            • Nepal Airlines to launch Colombo ! Wohoo!!

                              • Colombo - Madurai - Colombo in srilankan website

                                MIHIN LANKA has made COLOMBO – MADURAI – COLOMBO services from 5 weekly to daily from sept’15 onwards and booking available on Mihin website for all 7 days whereas Srilankan airline, code share carrier of Mihin, doesn’t show flights on Fridays in Dec and Jan.

                                I had send a mail to srilankan airlines showing the point and the response received from there was very disappointment.They were saying “we do not have flights on these days “.

                                Middle East people would try to reach back on Fridays so that they can resume duty on Saturday.

                                Is it beause of any technical problem in Srilankan website? So far no effort for resolve
