    SriLankan Airlines has now created a great looking introduction page for www.srilankan.aero. Also SriLankan's Websites in other languages - Chinese, Japenese, Deutche and Francais also been designed well exactly like their global site.

    According to Amadeus, SriLankan Airlines has increased the number of flights to Dubai from 7 weekly to 12 weekly, effective 4th July 2011 until 15th July 2011. New flights are operating for UL225 on days : Mon, Tue, Wed, Fri and Sun on route Colombo to Dubai to Colombo, using A320s.

    Here is the fligt schedule of UL225/6, Period 4-15 July 2011. source 1. source 2.

    17:25 - 20:25 - UL225 - A320 - CMB-DXB - 1.2.3.7
    18:45 - 21:45 - UL225 - A320 - CMB-DXB - 5.

    21:25 - 03:40 - UL226 - A320 - DXB-CMB - 1.2.3.7
    22:45 - 05:00 - UL226 - A320 - DXB-CMB - 5.

    @ Lordvader - Friend of mine who work for SriLankan said they will lease 3 of the B777s to replace older A340s. I can not confirm since this is only a rumour.

        Shri Lanka is a nice country. I have been there before 4 years with my friend. I like the Shrilankan airlines and I like the Katunayake airport.

                          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 ..

                              It is Engines Turning Or Passengers Swimming. And no, GA8 is not ETOPS.

                                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.php
