Reorienting SriLankan airlines as a regional carrier as a part of its restructuring process to seek the attention of foreign investors, will entail the leasing of four narrow-bodied short-haul Airbus A320neo aircraft next year, the top management said.
“Yes, we have some orders and deliveries coming next year. These are the aircraft we need, actually. These are good aircraft, very modern aircraft, and they can do sectors like Colombo to Hong Kong non-stop, for example,” SriLankan Airlines CEO Suren Ratwatte said.
Four of the aircraft will be leased from the US-based Air Leasing Corporation, while two will be leased from the world’s largest aircraft leasing company, the Dutch AerCap Holdings N. V.

A320 is mainly used by Budget cariers not National cariers for medium haul flights. CMB to HKG non stop in a small A320 is gonna be a bumpy and uncomfortable ride, cos the A320 primary is used for short haul flights.

Leasing out our brand new A350s and taking old A320s? Another scam?

The CEO , a former pilot does not qualify to run the airline. Appointment made through connections . Same as previous government. That's the biggest mistake Sri Lankan is making. Lack of business acumen in decision making cost them dearly. Bleeding obvious. Good luck finding a new bride to run the airline.
