      UL statement-

      Over the last few days, we at SriLankan Airlines have needed to cancel several flights mainly due to a number of technical issues which required temporary grounding of aircraft. These are routine issues, and aircraft maintenance follows very strict procedures which necessitate repairs or replacement parts before the aircraft are cleared to fly. Unfortunately, in this case we suffered a number of groundings at the same time. Every effort has been made to accommodate passengers on alternative flights on SriLankan Airlines and other carriers, and we have accommodated passengers in hotels where necessary. We also fully understand that this has affected the travel and plans of many of our guests. We apologize for the disruption and inconvenience caused and assure all our loyal customers that we are working diligently to minimize such occurrences moving forward.
      Any news or gossips about New aircraft lease or even RFPs? unoffical gossip came from an engineering student, that UL is looking for SLAF technicians to maintain UL planes.

            They are Resuming services to MAA

            They have good potential to serve JAF as well with their current fleet, however SG is does have quite a lot of Financial Strains, Leasing Issues etc. and created a reputation for having delayed/cancelled flights and poorly maintained aircraft

            Would chose not to fly them given there are other options available to chose form​

                Fits Air 8D Dhaka flights are still only in their plans, this picture shows 4R-EXR of fits air but operating as UL flights, which is wet leased by Sri Lankan due to their fleet shortage.
