    Exactly my thoughts too...

    These are tax payers money.. a government should be accountable to its people... and this is how these idiots are being accountable..just admitting lamely that 'we lost 3500 Million in just 3 months' :angry:

    If half of the money was used to creduce the taxes for the essential food items like 'MILK POWDER' & 'FLOOR'..what a relief that will be for all the hard hit poor & middle class people in SL....

    Didnt the people elect these morons to the parliament so that they might lessen the burdens of the people.. we expect them to lower the price of the bloody essentials..not to start a bloody 3rd class flying service so that they could waste 3.5 Billion of our money.. :growl:

    and now there's talk of Sri Lanka leasing 2 air planes to keep Mhin afloat....:baffled:

    How will Mihin be able to get a lease on 2 air crafts if it is already bankrupt... ?????

    Will any sane person lease 2 air crafts to a company that lost 3500 million in 3 months ???

    Mahinda will drag Sri Lankan Air Lines down with him... He is ruining Sri Lanka :(

    you are 100% correct

    yeah, I think its more appropriate to say its not governing the country, but governing by marketing :lol:

    When a person become a president he belongs to all country
    and serve all the citizens
    But this guy only only try to make this country a Blue place...
    If he could he'll surely colour all the trees in blue
    and make a blue colour unform for Army even..:oo:
    Remember when Colombo Town hall goes to them
    1st thing they've done is colouring the fences of Town hall in Blue...
    That is so Dumb!!!

    The original Motto for Mihin is "By the people of Sri Lanka..For the People of Sri Lanka'..should hav changed to 'By Mahinda & Co... For Mahinda & Co"

    How much cuts & bribes must have changed hands ????

    U guys are right... Hope we can save Sri Lankan Airlines from this Jarapakshaya and Brothers Co....

    He still hasn't given up... even after admitting that Mihin was a complete & utter disaster by loosing 3.5 Billion, he is still trying to keep it afloat by pumping money & air lines from Sri Lankan Air Lines... muge ammata !!! :angry:

    My question is why is the opasistion doing nothing ??? why are they keeping quite & letting this joker & his merry nband destroy & ruine everything in Sri Lanka...

    we are a third world country that is barely making ends meet here..can we recover from such huge lossless... ? probably the idiot will apply for another $ 500 Million droller loan from HSBC & loose it again on Mihin...

    what the hell is that good for nothing Ranil is doing with his UNP as the major opposition ? Is Jeppo still trying to sort out their problems so that they dont hav time to look in to the country's problems ?

    Are we ever gonna get out of this shit hole ?..like ever ?

    u sound pissed :P
    well I guess Mr.Opposition Leader only knows to protest like a child:no:
    a hirakee must have invested in there or must have undertaken a contract maybe? cos this is a perfect issue for Ranil to bounce back

    They hav finally done it...Merged Mihin with Sri Lankan Airlines :no:

    SriLankan, Mihin to merge commercial synergies - New CEO
    Ravi Ladduwahetty

    SriLankan Airlines and budget carrier Mihin Air will be run as two independent airlines merging commercial synergies, new Sri Lankan Airlines CEO Manoj Vaas Gunawardena told Daily News Business.

    He said that SriLankan will be carrying all the booked passengers of Mihin Air for May in the absence of aircraft but there were no booked passengers for June for the budget carrier yet.

    The strategy of the national carrier would be to have commercial cooperation between the two so that Mihin plays the role of the feeder carrier for SriLankan Airlines. Quoting an example, he said that when Mihin brings in passengers from Trivandrum to Colombo, SriLankan will take them on the bigger routes.

    He said that the operation would be formulated ensuring no conflict between the two. SriLankan would not operate flights to the same destinations at the same times as Mihin.

    The SriLankan CEO explained that there would not be any reductions in the UL flights to common destinations. "What would happen is that we will reschedule flights so that schedules would not overlap into each other," he said.

    The code sharing agreements with Emirates have been terminated. But the other code sharing agreements with Malaysian Airlines, Etihad Airways and British Midland Airlines still stand. "SriLankan Airlines, like any other airline has traffic rights to various destinations which it has enjoyed and Emirates cannot eat into that. There is no great risk of that happening," he said.

    "The biggest priority of the Airline was to turnaround the company from staggering losses largely due to the aviation fuel prices being 30% higher than budgeted. Our losses are more than anticipated," he said.

    Airline operations were difficult with fuel at US$ 126 per barrel. The priority is to break even and have a surplus, he said. Asked what the strategies for that would be he said that some of the existing contracts would be reviewed, renegotiated and revised.

    He said that one of the biggest strategies would be to increase the tourist traffic by increasing the frequencies between India, the Gulf and Colombo. Asked about the mass exodus of pilots in search of greener pastures, he said there were 100 pilots which he said, was adequate.

    No flight has been postponed or cancelled due to non-availability of cabin crew, he said. However, he conceded that there was a demand for flight crew in the event of the expansion of the route network.
