As per 07JUL11 GDS timetable and inventory display, Oman Air from 30OCT11 is adjusting operation to Colombo and Male, where both routes will be operating as terminator flight. http://airlineroute.net/2011/07/07/wy-cmbmle-w11/Comment

GA 8 is a great rough field performance plane ..
My only beef with the GA 8, is, with a single engine, it is fully ETOPS (Engine Turning or Passenger Shivering)

I am waiting for a bad weather flight, at low altitude, and no pressurisation ..
That'll be fun ..
Oh yes, I have had a lot of commuter flights, in Twotters, Islanders, C402s, and also on Turbo Porters .. and loved it .. when the sky was clear and there was more than one engine turning ..Comment

SriLankan cabin upgrades from August 2011
SriLankan would thus have eight long-haul aircraft with Flat Bed Seats-five A330's and three A340's. http://www.isria.com/pages/8_July_2011_76.phpComment

Thanks for the Press Release. But is it badly worded or is it a fact that only business class will be getting the new AVOD IFE system? If so, then they are going to alienate their economy class passengers pretty badly by doing that (and expect them to move to other airlines such as EK which give decent IFE).Comment

Price conscious travelers from areas like these are unlikely to choose a carrier over IFE. I can assure you that it will have no impact at all. Having said that, I have no idea whether they will upgrade Y class IFE or not. The new config for 332s would be 18J/251Y.Thanks for the Press Release.
