Thank you for the pictures, quite like the peacock painting in the partition between economy and business.

Is it something UL has come up with or something done by Airbus? I haven't seen this before, I haven't flown UL for more than 10 years now.

Now what if someone gets creative and adapts this either on the fuselage or logo 😆

I wonder why Sri Lankan didn't gave the newest addition to the fleet a nick name

Thanks for the pics! Looks like they've gone for RAVE IFE again rather than the Thales systems on the A330s.

Why would they use two different IFE products? Isn't that an avoidable overhead?

OTOH, why would they need the traditional IFE at all? They could have gone the BYOD route by providing Wifi and access to an on board content library.

Imaging the amount of money and the weight they could have saved.

What will be the Delivery schedule for four 321neos.??

The airline is adding two Airbus A320neo and four A321neo aircraft to its fleet in a little over a year. The second A320neo aircraft is scheduled for delivery in April 2017, followed by the first and second A321neo aircraft in the second quarter. A third A321neo is to arrive before the end of 2017, with the fourth A321neo is due in the first quarter of 2018. The orders for these aircraft were placed several years ago. The revamped fleet will enable the airline to dovetail more efficient management of its newly overhauled business plan for a leaner and a more efficient regional operation.

Guess who will be 1st, 2nd & 3rd operators for A321neo?

Planning to fly CMB-COK this April on UL. Can anyone confirm me with type of aircraft I would be flying in, because over the past weeks I have been tracking and found out that UL is constantly shuffling it with A320/332 type airplanes. So in this case could anyone give me an educated guess on UL aircraft operationing type to COK on April this year would be.
Thanks!!

Sri Lanka seeks higher bids for ailing airline

GoSL has wasted 8 months since July and now want to get back to square one?

Every day that GoSL have UL in their books is a loss for the SL tax payers.

They should offload this toxic asset without further delay.

They had 9 bids and 8 months to evaluate/negotiate and now to think that someone will magically come up with a better offer is naive, at best.

A lemon is a lemon and it gets what it gets.

According to Airlineroute,

KLM increase the Amsterdam – Colombo service from 2 to 3 weekly, 787-9 service in 17 JAN 18 – 01MAR18

Earlier this month, DELTA also started codesharing with KLM on Amsterdam – Colombo route.

UL is going to take delivery of 1st A321neo in May this year. Wow

Guys does all of UL's Airbus A320 aircraft have PTV's? If not what are the registrations that have PTV's.
