        Minister de Silva emphasized that since eight new air services are scheduled to arrive at Katunayake Airport in 2024, the terminal will be modernized at a cost of Rs.8 billion to reduce the passenger traffic in the existing terminal.

                Any reason why Fitsair are switching the aircraft on lease to UL?

                Any update on Fitsair expansion plans? new destinations? additional aircraft?

                  It seems ALC meant to operate UL217 to DOH but moved from airbridge to one of the parking apron. Technical issue?

                  Saw on photos, 4R-ALH and one A321neo is parked inside the B747-Hangar. 4R-ANB is without engines and one A321neo with engines parked outside the B747-Hangar. One A321neo and One A320ceo are parked in the Apron Echo.

                  Any update on returning A320/A321neo back to service?

                      ​4R-ALC is active since 02-Jan. Not sure what happened to ALC on 01-Jan?

                          ALH started its final checks and EGRs. Will resume service shortly.

                            Today, according to Skyliner 3 x A340s were flown to CMB.

                            I tried to find the flights on multiple tracking sites, but couldn't find any of them.

                                Hi Skyliner - Any reason why C5-MIA (A343), C5-MIB (A346) and C5-MIC (A346) are visiting Colombo?
