                Normally on Mondays between 6pm and 7pm you can see approx 14 pax-aircrafts on ground at BIA. Around this time they can connect Middle East, South Asia flights with Far East flights. Don't you think early morning also busy at CMB?

                      I feel like Japan Airlines might be able to hold up a permanent route from NRT to Colombo. They could also include MLE as a same plane service, just as Korean Air has been doing from ICN, and fairly successfully from what I can tell. I wonder what this particular flight is? A tourist charter? The Japanese government has their own fleet of planes for travel, so it would seem that this would be strictly civilian traffic. Anyone have an idea of what a/c type it is?

                        What is this JAL flight out of CMB? It is JA707J (772) pax aircraft, not a Cargo one, came from Sendai, may be a tech stop for fuel.




                        Just saw the conversation in other forum page, and its heading to Entebbe from CMB and coming back on same route.

                          There is another JAL flight due today from Entebbe, JL 8832 @ 19:15.
                          & JL 8832 to Sapporo @ 21.45, according to airport.lk

                          These look like Charter flights. Entebbe & Sapporo are domestic airports right ?

                              JL8831 flew from Narita -> Sendai -> Colombo -> Entebbe onboard B772 , aircraft rego : JA707J. I think this is a charter flight for a Contrail Project "Comprehensive Observation Network for trace gases by airliner". Not sure..
