              Comment


              • unique: Lhasa is the capital of Tibet. Let me say - NO CHANCE ..

                If I remember, the runway is located at high altitude, that not all airlines are allowed to fly there .. in the first place.

                And crew are known to get down with altitude sickness .. and flights need clearence, so do the passengers, as Visa to China doesn't include permit to Lhasa ..

                Plus, there was some supplementary certification for high altitude landings, considering the thin air

                    4R-ALC was not in operation between 6th Aug and 19th Aug , 4R-ALA is also not in operation since 20th Aug. It appears to be 4R-ALC has completed its cabin-upgrades on 19th Aug and 4R-ALA is currently undergoing its cabin-upgrades. Cabin-Upgrade for 4R-ALB, 4R-ALD, 4R-ADE and 4R-ADF are to be completed by December this year.

                        Crew apart I don't think the aircraft itself needs to be certified for high altitude operations right? I don't remember reading anything special about the A319 delivered to the new start up Tibet airways.

                              No, PS would not announce to the media that they are cancelling the plan of resuming flights to CMB. I found out that PS is not interested in CMB-route since VV confirmed the three weekly nonstop flights between KBP and CMB in Winter 2011. Source : GDS and PS Employee. But our SriLankan Airlines is interested in flying to KBP : Source

                              I thought Cabin-Upgrade is fully completed for 4R-ALC. Please confirm ?

                                I guess for the J class cabin upgrade,a bird will take like a month along with the othe checks. Seems the first set of flat beds are ready to be released for a 340.
