LHR cut is the most significant change to me. Any reason? this is UL's high traffic route. Also the late night arrival basically cut all the north American connections. Why? Did UL lost landing slots?Comment

May be you are right, but this is a massive cut, not just a reduction. This will basically make AC/UL code-share via LHR redundant. Can this be just a temporary cut until winter season where they can afford the downtime for refurb work????Comment

5 of 12 weekly services to LHR are already closed for Reservation on UL's internal reservation system.
Colombo – Paris CDG Planned Increase from 4 to 5 weekly is now cancelled.
2 weekly Male – Tokyo Narita service CANCELLED from 25MAR12, service remains at 4 weekly. However, 2 of 4 weekly service is currently available in full-fare J/Y class only.

Yes SriLankan finsihed this SPA with BMI in late 2011 - too one sided in BMI favour & little through traffic for SriLankan
Reduction in LHR flights not surprising - have you soon the taxes ex UK ? - they are just crazy
SriLankan make make better revenues on flights to Beijing , Shanghai & Guangzhou + the Chinese Govt likes to assit Sri Lanka !!!!!!!Comment

LHR is becoming increasingly un-attractive for airlines (due to extremely high costs) as well as to passengers (due to delays, inconveniences and lost luggage) and this trend has been apparant for a while now. Most transit passengers to US are jumping planes in Middle East.
Besides, it is well known that UL has been accumulating massive loses on thieir CMB-LHR-CMB route, so I guess this is the right thing to do. London is not the center of the world anymore (far from it) and there really is no justification for 12 weekly flights just to cater the O&D traffic.Comment
