    It's here! Came in for refueling for sure and probably tech/crew change I guess.

                    Do you know how long does the Etihad A380 was parked in CMB yesterday?A380s have become a usual visitor at CMB.

                    Here the pictures of Etihad A380 from Colombo Airport.

                    Hi Mitchell , Welcome to our Aviation Forum. Please tell us why Etihad A380 had a stopover at Colombo? and did the passengers
                    waited in the aircraft during the stopover?

                    Thanks to Harsha777 and Shehara.

                        Landing Time - 4:35 pm UTC
                        Take off Time - 6:05 pm UTC

                        So the aircraft was on ground for about 1 hour and 30 minutes.

                                    Really enjoyed your Flight Video + Flight Report. I remember flying on ALJ a couple of times on long-haul flights in the Year 2013. I found ALJ’s economy class seat does have tight leg room. Might be the reason ALJ has 4 extra seats than the ALA to ALD. I felt uncomfortable with the legroom when I was flying on it on the long haul flight. I suspect it’s one of the aircraft going to leave the fleet before 2020.

                                    Please tell me about the passenger load factor on the flight UL314? I have heard that UL does have plans for 3rd Daily for KUL route.

                                        Thank You for the positive feedback!

                                        I have 4 more FR's to be published soon.

                                        ALJ and ALH are exactly the same, with the additional seats. Load factor was 100% on Y Class on this rotation. Being seated in the aft cabin, I wasn't able to check out J Class.

                                        As far as i've heard, a few of the -200's are to be phased out however, i'm unsure to which ones UL would be looking to phase out.

                                        UL are to phase out a couple of A320/A321's this year and in my opinion MRE,MRD and ABL should be taken out

                                        A friend flew in yesterday on UL365 from CGK operated on ALA, which he claimed was far better than ALJ

                                        As far as the 3rd rotation, I honestly don't see the feasibility of doing so, with MH,AK and OD having significantly good pax loads. It would be much better if UL look to focus on using a bigger aircraft in the early morning rotation (UL318) instead of its A320's

                                                ALA,ALH and ALJ can be taken out of the equation.

                                                This is ALB if i'm not mistaken and yes the seats were a little hard,but quality service made up for it
