SriLankan Airlines operates special Bangkok-Colombo flt following cancellation
SriLankan Airlines says it “acted swiftly” to arrange a new flight – among other measures - after the Bangkok-Colombo UL883 flight was cancelled on Tuesday night owing to an aircraft engine cowling (outer case) being damaged on the ground at Bangkok’s Suvarnabhumi Airport.
The incident took place when a baggage cart operated by the airport’s ground handlers veered into the Airbus A330-300 aircraft and damaged an engine cowling (outer case) on Tuesday night, the airline release said.
“SriLankan Airlines made immediate arrangements for 32 passengers with onward connections in Colombo to travel on flights of other airlines. The remaining 251 passengers were provided overnight hotel accommodation in Bangkok by SriLankan Airlines. All 283 passengers were served a meal on board while arrangements were made. Another aircraft was dispatched from Colombo to Bangkok within a few hours, to operate a special flight to bring the remaining passengers to Colombo,” it said.
