How about some arrests and prosecutions as well?
Pradeepa Kekulawala continues to be employed despite evidence against him. I am one of those that have provided this evidence. Not hearsay - but signed letters and e-mails.

Lol - anybody believe this nonsense? Anybody holding this junk deserves what's coming to them imho.The national carrier's bonds are rated at the same level as its parent, the state of Sri Lanka, due to the unconditional and irrevocable guarantee provided by the state.
More racketeering - these people are obviously protected. As usual nobody is accountable.
As I've repeatedly stated - SriLankan doesn't resemble a Business in any way.Always fly a stable approach - it's the only stability you'll find this businessComment

It's a big mistake UL have cancelled HKG and reduced the BKK flights from 21 to 17 weekly.

Not if they are losing money on them.
Judging by the ongoing massive losses there are no profitable routes. Whenever some UL representative is wheeled out to talk more "Big Talk BS" they never talk about this.
As discussed previously the high lease costs and contracts without a termination clause means that it is impossible to make money operating flights.
It costs money to operate flights - this is a company that is running out of money. More cuts seem likely imho.Always fly a stable approach - it's the only stability you'll find this businessComment

Sad to know that UIA are terminating operations, probably due to the fact that Azur Air Ukraine are to commence operations in the near future. Lets hope that they too operate their iconic Boeing 767's to CMB similar to what UIA did- Aaqib Hussain
