Prologue:

Sri Lankan was on my bucket list for quite a while.

Sri Lankan is a great county and I love their culture and food.

With the new Airbus A333 in their fleet, they now offer a up to date cabin. Let's see how UL compares to the Asian counterparts.

I booked the ticket online and for about 1450€. On my dates, the outbound would be operated by an old A330-200 while the inbound would get the brand new A330-300.

The final routing is quite easy :
CDG-CMB-KUK and vice versa.

Let's go !

I arrived in the airport at 9 am by the high speed train. With my boarding pass already in hand

When I arrived I was warmly greeted by a charming lounge attendant and he was surprised about seeing me that soon.
