      Complete nonsense - there is no way SriLankan will ever make money.

      SriLankan is not a Business and doesn't resemble one in any way. It's just a way for public funds to be funelled into the pockets of Corrupt Politicians, their families and their cronies.

      The present investigation should have made that clear to everyone.

      These people are delusional - both the country and the Airline are bankrupt. Where do they think the money is going to come from?

          possibly new A330-900neo to replace older A330-200s dating from the 1990s,

            I notice Vipula doesn't explain where the money is going to come from for all of this. Pure propaganda - sounds exactly like Kapila and his 5 year plans.

            The country needs to repay almost $6 Billion in loans - that's money the GOSL doesn't have. The IMF will have to step in once again. I notice this doesn't get much coverage.

            No idea where the money is going to come from to keep running SriLankan - they must be close to having spent all the money loaned from UBS in Singapore.

                            They are going to take advantage of suspension of Jet Airways flights.
                            UL should do that too

                                I think UL better start A330 service to Mumbai. UL is currently flying two daily onboard A320/A321.
