        Yes, looks like all the 330s are active except 4R-ALC. showing no flights since June '20, I​​​s it due to having technical problems?

            Registration - 9XR-WR came to Colombo from Kigali via Nairobi. I think it was carrying 6 Sri Lankans from Rwanda to Sri Lanka.
            It looks like Rwandair also carried Rwandan experts to Sri Lanka to resolve sena Caterpillar menace.

            Rwandair flew back to Kigali on the 1st Jan 2020. May be it will come back to Colombo to pickup the Rwandan experts back to their country.

                    The BA 787 that landed in HRI must have brought the England cricket team to Sri Lanka.

                            Not even Sri Lankan airlines been given the opportunity to carry the tourist, looks like private business...

                              it's charter flight. So, it originates from Ukraine. Otherwise it will add more cost to them if SL Airlines goes from here.

                                so what is the benefit country gets? India projects workers are from india including the security gard ? Chinese projects workers are Chinese? Then what is the use of allowing foreigners to do business in Sri Lanka? Is it to sell a part Sri Lanka to foreigners and make commission?
