A second aircraft from Air Belgium is due to join the SriLankan fleet in mid-January 2024, SriLankan said in a statement.

Is OE-LCL A332 to join the UL fleet?

No, still in white, but has the Sri Lankan flag on either side behind the cockpit windows.

4R-ABS when operated by Royal Brunei had streaming IFE. When retrofitted with UL interiors/IFE only ABS and its sister aircraft will have IFE

4R-ABL and 4R-MRE no IFE

OE-LAC (wet leased 332) has IFE screens but since its wet leased it wont be available - i wonder how PAX will put up with no IFE for 10 hrs flights like to FRA they plan to deploy this aircraft
