SriLankan Airlines, the first Asian airline to operate the four-engine
Airbus A340 aircraft, will bid goodbye to the last of its A340s after
more than two decades in service, with a final commercial flight today
(January 7, 2016).SriLankan introduced the A340 on 1st September 1994, at the time when it was the most sophisticated aircraft manufactured by Airbus Industrie. Over this 21-year period, a total of seven A340s have served the Airline, and were for many years the mainstay of its long haul fleet.
The national carrier has inducted a brand new fleet of seven sophisticated A330-300 aircraft which offer the latest comforts and technology such as mood lighting, on-board Wifi connectivity, and the most sophisticated inflight entertainment system.
