    all of the 7 A330-343s have reached 10 years old, with the oldest being 11.4 years old. they would be (or should be, if not already!) planning for replacements in the next 5-7 years(when these jets hit 16-18). until that gets underway, they would need to keep these jets in hand.

    Probably UL will request to extend the 12 year Lease from All lessors.

      I agree!

      I heard UL have found a spare set of landing gears and now the replacements are underway. Does anyone have more info?

            Wow good news. Had QF been to CMB lately? Don't think so
            QF337 to CMB was a one time charter. Notsure if this flight visited CMB in the past?

            As per below QF spent most days in CMB compared to other destinations in this charter flight. Is this shows the popularity of Sri Lanka towards Australian tourists?

            Any idea QF start schedule flights between SYD and CMB near future?

                      Hi All,

                      Greetings! Small updates here,

                      4R-ALP is under a Heavy C check, eventually all A330-343 Fleet will be undergoing C check, one by one.
                      4R-EXS is under a C check in UL 320 Hangar, will be back in service by after 2nd week February.
                      Fits Air (8D/EXV) has pushed their AMD , LHE plans to Summer, They will not operate LHE and AMD within 25/26 Winter.
                      Thanks for the update ! Was thinking why 4R-ALP is not active since 05-Feb-2026.

                      Dry leases of the UL A330-343s were supposed to expire this year/2027. Does anyone know if the leases have been extended?

                      Do you know how frequencies have been planned for Fits Air to AMD? Any reason why LHE was delayed to Summer 2026?
