Thanks for the pic. A bit surprised that UL opted for CFM engines on this one as well. Makes me wonder why they got MSN2345 when they couldve opted for an ex Wataniya CFM frame which is a lot newer. -
@Gayan are they opting to keep the three class layout ? And is Druvi still flying ?
@lordvader newer = costlierThe opinions above are solely my own and do not reflect those of my employer or clientsComment

It might be costlier but Wataniya's aircrafts would have seatback IFE installed, whereas UL would have to refurbish their other A320s to provide for such features (being a 'premium airline'). As such wouldnt it be cheaper long term?
Also not sure why no one has picked up on this yet, but Aviointeriors has pretty much confirmed that UL will be installing their 'Biz' seat (on their website). The following link also has a new image of the seat and a link to your (KFlyer's) website.
Does anyone have any idea if B-HXL will get the new seating?Last edited by lordvader; 22-04-2011, 10:17 AM.Comment

Banu, thanks for all the scoop pics of the new aircraft youve put in this thread! Much appreciated. Im eagerly waiting to see the interior pics of 4694 (and whether theyve actually installed the new IFE systems in)!Comment

IMHO, It will be better if MJ also use the MA60s for routes like KKS-MAA, KKS-TRZ, KKS-IXM, CMB-IXM, CMB-TRV (for additional flights) and CMB-TRZ (for additional flights). BTW Does any body know the current-status of MJ's MA60s ? I heard that MJ also has a plan of getting another A320 by 2012.Comment

I dont think they are getting the MA60's (I think they are now going to Helitours) since there isnt that much demand for domestic scheduled flights anymore (with the reopened roads). And I think they mentioned about another A320 in an interview somewhere, as well as a plan to increase the fleet to five aircraft eventually. That said, Im not sure so its best to get someone in the know to confirm it!Comment
