    So from 1 up o 2, not the other way round.

    I am also surprised that they reduced it. Maybe it’s due to an aircraft shortage, because they only have two A320 Neos for all international operations. It’s also very sad that UL stopped flying to Seychelles. There are many Sri Lankans there, and now they have to spend nearly USD 1,000 to travel to Sri Lanka via Qatar or Emirates, taking more than one day. A direct flight takes around four hours, and the round trip would only cost about USD 500–600.

    Hi Banu,

    4R-EXQ is under maintenance due to an unexpected trouble with one powerplant, 4R-EXS is here for a Check (Proly C check) and will be operated for 8D only for a week in-order to avoid Flight Disruptions due to the AOG of EXQ. EXS will return to 8D somewhere around Jan 2026.
    Thanks for the update !

    According to FR24, EXQ back in revenue service since 20 Nov 2025. Nice to see EXQ back in service ! EXS went to HYD on the 17 Nov 2025 and came back to CMB on the 22 Nov 2025.
