As regards Singapore, they might send Scoot as well. This information will be confirmed once the runway expansion is successfully completed.Leave a comment:

Really impressed with back to back announcements on new flight services to Colombo?
Any chance Saudia, Ethiopian and Vietnam Airlines start flights to Colombo? Any update on Air Astana flying CMB this winter?
Any update on extending runway at JAF to accomodate A320 / B737? We need Air Arabia and FlyDubai to resume Daily flights to HRI? May be Air Arabia can do Daily SHJ-JAF-HRI-SHJ and FlyDubai can do Daily DXB-HRI-JAF-DXB.Leave a comment:
