Sri Lankan Airlines

Hi,

Currently Sri Lankan Airlines have 14 Passenger aircraft contains 5 A320, 4 A330 and 5 A340. They should be replaced with 14 B777 (C/Y 278 SEATED CARRIER). It will enable them to increase the seat capacity with limited aircraft operations.

What do you think?

Can I ask what you are basing that on???

I doubt many of the short range flight such as Trivandrum could support a 777 or if such a short route would even be economical for an airline like Sri Lankan which suffers so regularly as a result of politics!!!

At least the A320's allow a buffer when things get bad!
