Looks like Jet Airways cancelling CMB - MAA route as per airlineroute.net. (crowded market ? Less Sri Lankans traveling to MAA due to security concerns? ?)

Few months back UL reduced the frequency on MAA flights from 28 weekly to 21 weekly. Now I am quite surprised 9W is quitting MAA-CMB sector, I believe they will keep the BOM-CMB sector active.
