    Cathay Pacific is planning to resume Colombo with 3 weekly A330-300 from Feb 2024. I wonder why Colombo has been postponed until Feb 2024?

                Yes, engines are here. ANE will also fly soon. Test flight was scheduled today, but didn't happen I think. ANB and ANA will also come in a few weeks.

                  Brand new engines or refurbished/repaired something?
                  got how many engines?

                      Nice to see the LCC carrier is entering the AUH-CMB route. When it's going to start? Air Arabia must be trying to exploit the AUH-CMB route when EY is flying CMB via MLE.

                      Any reason why EY doesn't do nonstop flights to CMB anymore? But EY increasing CMB flights to Daily from Oct23​

                            Does Wizz air still have plans to fly HRI?

                            I can't see HRI listed on the Wizz air website : https://wizzair.com/en-gb/flights/timetable

                              Don't worry Emirates and Etihad will Beat it, yeah. Even Qatar Airways!! Remember, This is a cutthroat business!! Maybe SriLankan airlines will do it for $100 and that's cheap!! Mind you our national Airline bleeding in TRILLION RUPEES and counting, yeah.
