Sri Lanka Minister of Civil Aviation Priyankara Jayaratne says that the Ministry has decided to stop the operation of sea planes by the national carrier Sri Lankan Airlines.
The lease arrangement of sea planes with a Canadian company is to expire in around four months and the SriLankan will terminate operations of sea planes then, the Minister says.
The service is to be given to the private sector under contract, according to the Minister.
The move is aimed at minimizing the losses the national carrier is continually incurring.
