Seems like it, they have been struggling to operate MLE-CMB flights for awhile now due to 8Q-IAN (their sole A320) being stored, their ATRs and DH8s are unable to operate the flights due to sufficient amount of pax on that route, they simply can't accommodate that many passengers on small regional planes, but Q2 can't also deploy it's new A332 on the route since it is not practical, EK, UL, 8D, GF, OQ and MU already operate flights between MLE-CMB.Someone please correct me If I am wrong or if there is any other reason as to why they have ended the route.
I recall the last time I saw Q2 operating was around 5 weeks ago and that was on their ATRs.
I guess Q2 couldn't make the route work as it couldn't transport cargo between CMB and MLE ever since their A320 stored in KUL in Sep24. May be thats the reason Q2 wetleased BBN Air B73F to transport committed cargo on CMB-MLE from end of Sep to end of Dec24. May be Q2 carried some pax on ATR infrequently until termination. May be i am wrong.

JAF expansions and developments are more than about the runway extensions, its about all new international terminal, parallel taxiway, and runway extension as I got informed. Hingurakgoda runway expansion is just like BTC Runway expansions according to international standard, which means Hingurakgoda won't become an international airport like at least RML or HRI. Cannot guess anything Bcz its all upto Government decisions.

Hello, most people who travel on CMB-RUH and CMB-DMM sectors are Sri Lankan Expats who travel to Saudi and other gulf states for work purposes, as far as I am aware, Passenger load on those sectors are good, especially during winter season because of Sri Lankans returning home after working. So far Pax load on CMB-RUH is around 90% on average and CMB-DMM is around 85%.
I am quite surprised to see UL is using only A321neo to RUH instead of usual A332/A333 in Feb25. Any reason?

Sri Lanka, Italy agreement to operate upto 14 scheduled passenger flights weekly
January 22, 2025 1:10 am 0 comment
The Cabinet of Ministers has approved a long-pending proposal to sign a bi-partial civil aviation agreement between Sri Lanka and Italy, paving the way for enhanced air connectivity between the two nations, Government Information Department said.
Discussions regarding this agreement began in 2018, with initial Cabinet approval granted on July 24 of that year. However, the agreement remained unsigned until both Governments recently emphasised the importance of finalising the deal without further delay.
Under the proposed agreement, airlines from both countries will be permitted to operate up to 14 scheduled passenger flights per week and seven scheduled cargo flights per week on agreed routes using any type of aircraft.
The initiative, spearheaded by the Transport, Highways, Port, and Civil Aviation Minister aims to strengthen bilateral ties, boost tourism and expand trade opportunities between Sri Lanka and Italy.

UL should resume Rome Fiumicino and Milan-malpensa services ASAP as a part of their route expansion this year. What about Ita Airways flying CMB?

Please find the pictures I took of 4R-ALS from Cambridge 8 years ago : https://www.lankaaviator.com/node/21?p=19727#post19727

Hi Banu,
Cabin works are still not completed as I got informed. I am not sure about the date it leaves TEV.
