    Thank you for sharing info Banu!

    But, most carriers are targetting the new improved A330-900 jets with increased MTOW, still Airbus didnot take the certification for the this variant. But hope this agreement goes well for UL, Cheers!!!!

    any pictures of the new interior of 4R-ALH?
    ALO does need repainting as soon as things permit because most of the paint in upper part of its fuselage is cracked/speed taped.

    Airlines such as Q2, B9 among the ones terminated CMB in the last few months.

    UL was planning to repaint all the A333 fleet. Has this been confirmed? I wonder repainting is a good idea for the aircraft due to be returned to lessors from next year? Notsure if leases for A333s have been extended? But i agree 4R-ALO badly needed repainting asap.​

    Both Aircrafts, MSN     1844, 1861 were supposed to be join with Azul, Brazil, but according to the planespotters​.net https://www.planespotters.net/airfra...belgium/r6km8k
    but not taken by Azul, remains with the lessor.

    In a recent interview with an Indian travel magazine, SriLankan Airlines’ Regional Manager for India, Bangladesh, and Nepal, Fawzan Fareid outlined the fleet expansion strategy. “We plan to add two narrow-body aircraft between April and June 2025, bringing the total to 13, followed by the addition of one wide-body aircraft between July and October 2025. Two more wide-body aircraft will be added between November 2025 and March 2026, expanding our fleet to 25 by the end of March 2026,” he said.
