            More Fairy Tales - this simply isn't going to happen.

            I just love how they fail to mention that this debt has been transferred to the people of Sri Lanka. Looking at the comments it's good to see that there are people who understand what is going on.
            Always fly a stable approach - it's the only stability you'll find this business

                Sri Lanka's Sakurai Aviation is getting down a turboprop NAMC YS-11 aircraft very soon. This will be used for charter services at VCBI, and will be the first YS-11 to operate in and out of Sri Lanka! Expect the arrival soon in the next few weeks.

                    I thought LHR-CMB will be one... but it is not...
                    I can notice UL's MEL flights are giving convenient connections for MAA, BOM, DEL, BLR, BKK. Daily Inbound flight from MLE & KHI and outbound flight to LHR over the weekends.

                                YES.. do not understand.. on what basis CMB-MEL and MEL-CMB flight schedules have decided.. no connecting flights to any of the favuorite destinations.. yahh
                                How UL can expect profits from new routes.. will Sri Lankan alone cobtribute load factor.. i'm highly doubtful..
                                Anyway.. can anyone CMB-MEL/MEL-CMB load factor..??
