          @ Kflyer - Thanks for the confirmation. SriLankan Airlines is better to get the twin-engined planes.

          ---

          Gulf Air (GF) will be increasing Colombo flights from 8 to 9 weekly , effective 30 October 2011. However the airline had previously planned to reduce the Colombo flights to 7 weekly. Glad to know that they have finally come to a decision of expanding flights to Colombo when passenger demands between Europe and Sri Lanka are currently booming.

          Flight Schedule - Period 30-October-2011 - March 2012.

          10:15 - 17:40 - GF062 - A320 - BAH - CMB - 2.3.6.7
          20:15 - 03:50 - GF066 - A320 - BAH - CMB - 1.3.4.6.7

          04:50 - 07:50 - GF067 - A320 - CMB - BAH - 1.2.4.5.7
          20:45 - 23:45 - GF063 - A320 - CMB - BAH - 2.3.6.7
