    May be. As per my estimation about 40% of the load are transfer traffic.

          A few inbound flights to CMB on holding patterns right now... And TK730 from MLE seems to have rejected landing and did a strange low pass over CMB...

            0 visibility and heavy rains with thunderstorms, that's why.

                I think all ex. Mihin aircraft are being painted into SriLankan livery. Today A321-200, 4R-MRD was inside the A320 hangar, probably going to be painted very soon.

                    These two ex-Mihin aircraft (MRD / MRE) were leased from Aercap and I think these two aircraft leases were extended when UL cancelled the A350 leases with Aercap.

                          It appears to be that, they performing a test flight at the moment, i guess its the first flight.

                                Any record of any flights coming in from Indonesia?
                                According to CMB website, there are two Sriwijaya aircraft are expected to arrive at CMB from Indonesia in next few hours. Is it hajj flights?
