I believe UL still has CMB-FRA and CMB-CDG flights in mind? The schedule here is the JAN 25 schedule, which shows UL563 and UL553 returning back. Also PVG and PEK flights are coming back, as per this schedule.

Glad to see UL 553 and 563 back after January. UL might have 4R-ALT,ALU and ALW by then

Hi Banu,

Could you please double check the 8D's schedule, cross check with schedule that I've uploaded just before this. Check MAA, MLE .

Thanks, really appreciated. I have updated them now accordingly. Please check if it looks good.

Do you know what's causing the delay introducing the new destinations SHJ, DOH, CCJ, TRV?

Hello Banu,
Please update Q2's aircraft from 320 to ATR. They will be deploying their ATR' 72 and 46s to CMB instead of their A320, and they will be increasing frequency from 2 to 3 weekly, (Fri, Sat and Sun) (please correct me if im wrong)

Thanks.

Also, looks like UL will increase BLR-CMB from 7 to 10 weekly, and UL to increase BOM-CMB to 16 weekly!!!!

Seems like MH will be deploying it's new 737 Maxs to cmb, also some notable changes in my opinion are OV increasing MCT-CMB from 3 to 4 weekly A32Qs..6E increasing BOM-CMB from 4 to 6 weekly and HM also increasing SEZ-CMB from 1 to 2 weekly..

Yes frequencies to BLR and BOM are to be increased. But we will expect more changes in coming months.

I find it awkward seeing UL flight numbers are not used properly. UL501 is used to be ex-LHR flight currently being used for triangular flight CMB-CDG-FRA-CMB services and UL flights to South Asian destinations are not using proper flight numbers in the series.

My thoughts flight numbers have to be used like below until UL do further expansion to South Asian cities.

Best case scenario its due to certification and regulatory issues, other than that, it's either low pax demand or something else..no clue as to why they delayed it..

However, good news is that seems like Enter air will be operating WAW-RKT-CMB flights from OCT 29th, from what I have heard, the flight is almost fully booked!

Sorry. I actually meant 4R-ALV and not 4R-ALW
4R-ALH is back in service but 4R-ALL is out of service for a while

Guys, according to some rumors, Uzbekistan airways to begin TAS-CMB flights soon, however these are just rumors as of now, but I will update you guys will more information, last time Uzbekistan airways operated TAS-MLE-HRI flights.

Im suspecting that they will deploy their A32Bs to CMB.

Also, UL to increase SIN-CMB flights from 7 to 9 weekly starting OCT 29.

As per FR24, Centrum Air from Tashkent going to fly direct flight to CMB on 2-Nov. I am wondering if it's a one-off flight or regular flight. Any idea?
Centrum Air leased couple of A321neo from MyFreighter Airlines for operating leisure flights.

I don't believe it is impacting UL yet, since UL is going to be switching from CMB-CDG-FRA tri-angular routing to CMB-CDG and CMB-FRA next year, I believe these routes will be deployed using A332s? Please correct me If i am wrong.

Also, any update on UL's full fleet getting activated by the end of this year? Would love to see the remaining A32Ns and A32Qs back in operation.

UL is currently operating A332 (ALS) on CMB-CDG-FRA-CMB route on some days. As far as i am aware ALS have cramped seat config as 18J/279Y. Does anyone have experienced the flight onboard ALS? Any opinion on the leg room, interior, IFE?

Do you know what's causing the delay introducing the new destinations SHJ, DOH, CCJ, TRV?

Hi Banu, There is another amendment of the W24 Schedule of 8D, will share with you all shortly, There is no delay upto now regarding new routes, 8D is expecting to launch asap, probably after 1 st of Dec (SHJ, DOH, CCJ), No clue about TRV, but willing to start before 1st of Dec.
