    4RALR is inactive since 26 may.
    Sadly grounded indefinitely due to some defects inside the galley after maintenance in Jordan. Will fly once that's sorted..

          I see it operated as DAC-KUL-CMB as 8D614/615. Any reason for this flight?

                    SriLankan Airlines hopes to grow its current fleet of 21 to 22 next month, with plans to obtain another three aircraft within the next three months, the CEO said.

                    The destinations to be covered by the airline would remain the same for the time-being, Nuttall said. However, the frequency of flights to destinations already covered by SriLankan airlines is expected to increase, he said.

                    “Most of the expansion that we’ll get from that will not be new cities, but it will be increasing frequencies to existing destinations, particularly India and Southeast Asia,” he said. (ANI)​

                          V8-RBX did a test flight on 11-Jun. Is this going to become ABT?

                              Certainly. She’s wearing UL colours. Will fly here next month.
                              4R-ABN is on its final phase of the extensive C-check….will enter service end of this month or next.
