          EXQ is presently at the 747 hangar for paintwork with the FitsAir livery… assuming that it will be re-entering to service soon

          EXS would probably be painted on return form Flyadeal​
          Fitsair is flying single A320 (EXR) for its flight. Only DXB (6x) in service but both MAA & MLE are cancelled for past few days.

            ABL has a wing crack and is grounded in AUH. ABQ is in all white c/s and has got a lease extension to fly a bit more for UL as I understand due to a/c shortage.
            4R-ABL flew back to Colombo today and back in service with UL171/2.

                        One of the Pilots known to me told Qatar Airways has requested 7 flights a day.. (i.e. adding 2 more flights to their 5 flights a day now!)..
                        but SL officials have turned down that request

                        is this true?

                          I can see from the Winter2023 schedule, UL is increasing from current single daily to double daily to Doha.

                          Is QR doing well on CMB route?

                                Is that means UL found a buyer?
