    SriLankan Airlines will be getting its full fleet activated by the end of this year.

    With three more aircraft expected the airline has a plan to grow its fleet to 27 aircraft by the end of next year.

    Let's hope the best the full fleet activated by the end of this year. Since ABT already joined the fleet, 2 more aircraft are to join the fleet this year. Wondering which aircraft type going to join the fleet next?

    ABN was active earlier on Fr24. May be still testing going on.

                It seems ALH due to fly back to CMB today as UL266.
                Wondering what was the reason it was AOG in RUH?

                                I believe most of these A320N groundings are due to ongoing engine issues with both types of NEO series engines which limit the number of flying hours before aircraft have to be grounded for routine inspections. In a way UL may be lucky they opted for CFM LEAP instead of PW 1000G GTF engines since they seem to have relatively less issues but both types have significantly less reliability than the old CFM56 and V2500 engines of the CEO series. Due to these issues with the NEO engines, there is a global shortage of these engines for at least 2-3 more years according to analyst predictions I have seen.

                                                            Chongqing Airlines today resumed direct nonstop flights from Chongqing, China to Colombo, the Airport and Aviation Services (Sri Lanka) (Private) Limited (AASL) said.

                                                            The flight was welcomed with a celebratory water cannon salute upon arrival at the Bandaranaike International Airport (BIA).

                                                            The inaugural flight from Chongqing to Colombo, OQ2393 arrived at 2:50 p.m. with 78 passengers.

                                                            The passengers were warmly welcomed by a traditional Kandyan dance performance sponsored by the Sri Lanka Tourism Promotion Bureau and they were presented with gift packs of tea sponsored by the Sri Lanka Tea Board.

                                                            Three weekly flights will be operated between Chongqing and Colombo while Acorn Aviation (Private) Limited is the General Sales Agent (GSA) for Chongqing Airlines in Sri Lanka.

                                                            The recommencement of Chongqing Airlines operations in Sri Lanka will help boost tourist arrivals to Sri Lanka and strengthen economic cooperation in the areas of trade, investment, finance, education and culture between China and Sri Lanka, said AASL.
