Your luck maybe out SRILANKAN airlines have cut their workforce due to the minor disruptions at the airport.

They will not be taking on pilots for the present moment. They lost 3 aircraft 2 A330's and 1 A340 when the airport was attacked and 3 other aircraft were damaged. They have been examined by airbus technicians and 1 A340 is to costly to repair.

Thats more than half the fleet gone! What a waste the airline had so much going for it, all new airbus aircraft too!!!

The country is fantastic with super golden beaches! I have flown on SRILANKAN airlines many times and i have no negative points. So sad to see such a great airline troubled by domestic problems.
