In any case does anyone have any idea whats happening with the 2x A320NEOs on order for MJ? Are they going to UL instead?

I believe my previous explanation was sufficient to understand the cause for present predicament SriLankan has faced.
Believe me nothing much will happen in SriLankan in spite of all these rosy talks. I know how this company works. Unfortunately it lacks real go-getters in its top management. Their focus is not align with the business plan of a crisis ridden establishment. There is no sense of urgency within the top management circle to get out of this consistent loss of public money.
There will be two scenarios I can predict with confidence now.
1. Next Budget Finance Minister will say that SriLankan has further reduced their losses and on the way to better manage the finances (naturally with shrinking network the cost will go down and the losses will trim down, but accumulated loss will further increase)
2. After 5 years in to their new business plan there will be a new government and SriLankan management will present the next batch of political jokers with a new business plan for next five years for recovery.

I heard this decision was made this route was not profitable because of poor russian economy. If I'm not mistaken UL must have done well in DME route , when Russian economy was doing well & a lot of Russian tourists were flying Sri Lanka, the maldives and seychelles out of CMB.

Passgengers from Asia Pacific also travel to Europe via CMB. IF UL stops European destinations,it will reduce passenger demand on those routes too.Who will benefit from from this is only Middle Eastern carriers.
Mean while UL gets good comments from passangers after introducing new birds according to SKYTRAX
