    Thanks Rana.
    I think it will ease many bottlenecks, if implemented right with the right stuffs.
    Except for the shorter Indian sector, all other flights have minimum of 4 hours flying time between the point of embarkation to Colombo International Airport.
    Immigration can screen and process passengers faster, if the right stuffs are brought in to work.
    I know SITA is a good provider but you have to buy tailor-made than something prepared for general use.
    (Presently I am battling something of this sort with them).
    So, Department of Immigration have to be smart enough not to buy something made for someone else.
    But if you ask for modifications after purchase, they will try to fleece you.

    APIP information will have all the details necessary for the Immigration authorities to process any incoming passenger.
    Since almost all passports are machine readable nowadays, passenger should be able to swipe through.
    If any issue with any passenger, the authority can have an alarm /alert to stop him / her going through the electronic processing and take over the usual cumbersome manual process.

    Flying, the Safest Mode of Transport - Page 3 Empty Bezos' space company aims for passenger flights in 2018

    Post by කිත්සිරි ද සිල්වා Wed Mar 09, 2016 8:59 am

    Jeff Bezos' space company Blue Origin expects to begin crewed test flights of its reusable suborbital New Shepard vehicle next year and begin flying paying passengers in 2018, Bezos told reporters on Tuesday.

    Bezos’ remarks, made during the first ever media tour of the Blue Origin manufacturing facility, marked the first time the billionaire founder of Amazon.com had put a target date on the start of the commercial space flights Blue Origin is developing.

    "We’ll probably fly test pilots in 2017, and if we’re successful then I’d imagine putting paying astronauts on in 2018,” Bezos said at the sprawling plant south of Seattle.

    Flying, the Safest Mode of Transport - Page 3 Empty Woman smuggle child in hand luggage

    Post by Rana Thu Mar 10, 2016 2:30 pm

    A woman flew from Istanbul to Paris with a four-year-old girl hidden inside her hand luggage, Air France has said.

    The airline said the child, travelling without a ticket, was discovered on board the flight on Monday night.

    An airport source told AFP news agency that the woman was a resident of France who was in the process of adopting the child, from Haiti.

    The airline notified the French authorities but prosecutors decided not to press charges.

    The woman was in the transit zone in Istanbul but was preventing from boarding her flight with the child, the source told AFP.

    She then bought a new flight ticket and hid the child in a bag.

    Once on board, she placed the child at her feet under a blanket, but the girl needed to go to the toilet and was noticed by other passengers, the source said.

    "The cloth bag belonged to a woman sat at the back of the plane. At one point she opened the bag and her neighbour on the other row of seats saw something moving inside. He alerted flight attendants, who then discovered a baby," a passenger named Vincent told French news website Planet.fr (in French).

    The woman and the girl have been held at Charles de Gaulle airport while authorities investigate the case.

    Flying, the Safest Mode of Transport - Page 3 Empty Two Injured, Iron Maiden’s Plane ‘Badly Damaged’ in Airport Accident

    Post by කිත්සිරි ද සිල්වා Sun Mar 13, 2016 9:46 am

    Two people have been injured when Iron Maiden‘s airplane, Ed Force One, collided with a ground tug at the airport in Santiago, Chile today. The band is currently making new arrangements to get themselves and their equipment to Argentina for their concert tomorrow night.

    They broke the news on their Facebook page, where they included the above picture and another showing the damage. According to the post, the plane was being towed in order to be refueled prior to their flight to Cordoba, Argentina. “On moving, the steering pin that is part of the mechanism that connects the ground tug to the aircraft seemingly fell out.

    On making a turn the aircraft had no steering and collided with the ground tug badly damaging the undercarriage, two of the aircraft’s engines and injuring two ground tug operators, both of whom have been taken to hospital. We hope of course that they make a full and speedy recovery and we will be closely monitoring their progress.

    The flight engineers are on site and evaluating the damage, but their initial report is that the engines have suffered large damage and will require an extended period of maintenance and possibly two new engines.”

    Flying, the Safest Mode of Transport - Page 3 Empty SriLankan apprehends 230 persons with false travel documents in 2015

    Post by Rana Fri Mar 18, 2016 9:58 am

    Mar 16, 2016 (LBO) – SriLankan Airlines has apprehended 230 persons with false travel documents last year in a bid to crack down on illicit travel through Bandaranaike International Airport (BIA).

    International law authorizes airlines to ensure that passengers travelling between countries do so with all authentic documentation, as required by the airline industry’s global governing bodies such as the International Civil Aviation Organisation.

    Airlines also face heavy fines from foreign governments if a passenger is detected with forged visa or passport, even if such passengers have been cleared through Immigration authorities at the point of origin.

    Fines range up to 5,500 euros per passenger (LKR 873,000) in some European countries.

    “The airline has its own group of specially trained document checkers, who have been trained by foreign embassies in spotting fake travel documents,” SriLankan Airlines said in a statement.

    “SriLankan Airlines saved LKR 130 million in fines from the 230 cases detected last year, apart from the cost of carrying the passenger back to his point of origin, cost of detention rooms at foreign airports, and investigation expenses.”

    While such fake passengers are likely to use any of the dozens of airlines which operate from BIA, SriLankan Airlines staff play an important role in detecting them on all such airlines, since SriLankan is the sole airport service handler for all airlines at BIA.

    The airline said their employees also work closely with Sri Lanka Police, Customs and Immigration to minimize and eradicate the organized crime of human trafficking.

    An EgyptAir flight which was diverted and forced to land in Cyprus was reportedly hijacked by a man who wanted to deliver a letter to a woman, who may or may not be his ex-wife.

    According to the Guardian, the Lebanese hijacker has demanded political asylum and threw a letter from the plane addressed to his ex-wife who lives in Cyprus.

    The EgyptAir domestic flight from Alexandria to Cairo was hijacked today and landed in Cyprus. The Cyprus Broadcasting Corporation reported that 55 people are on board, with a crew of 7. There were earlier reports of about 80 to 81 people on board.

    Flying, the Safest Mode of Transport - Page 3 Empty Passenger planes crash while taxiing at Jakarta airport

    Post by කිත්සිරි ද සිල්වා Tue Apr 05, 2016 7:49 pm

    Two passenger aircraft collided on the runway of an airport in the Indonesian capital, forcing its temporary closure.

    No injuries were reported.

    The accident on Monday evening occurred at a military airport that also handles civilian flights to ease congestion at Jakarta's main commercial airport.

    Batik Air said in a statement that its plane carrying 49 passengers and seven crew was "touched" while taxiing for takeoff by a TransNusa aircraft that was being towed.

    Images posted online showed severe damage to the wing of the Batik Air jet, a Boeing 737-800.

    The airline said passengers and crew were safely evacuated.

    Flying, the Safest Mode of Transport - Page 3 Empty SriLankan Airlines looking to sub-lease Airbus A350s

    Post by Rana Thu Apr 07, 2016 4:00 pm

    ECONOMYNEXT - State-run SriLankan Airlines is in talks to sub-lease three Airbus A350 aircraft it is has to take delivery this year, Chief Executive Suren Ratwatte said.

    Sri Lankan has ordered up to eight A350s with three due in 2016, one in 2017 and another four from 2020 onwards.

    But SriLankan has not been able to make profits on long-haul European routes the aircraft was deployed and a new administration has asked it to focus on regional traffic to cut losses.

    Prime Minister Ranil Wickremesinghe told parliament that SriLankan may have to cancel the A350 orders and pay penalties.

    The A350s due this year is leased from AerCap.

    Ratwatte declined to confirm reports that the carrier is in talks with Turkish Airlines to sub-lease the A350s.

    Trukish is a remarkable airline, which made losses under state-control which became one of the fastest growing and profitable carriers in the world after it was listed on the Turkish Stock Exchange and state-control was reduced.

    SriLankan which was profitable when it was privatized and was managed by Emirates, became a loss-making carrier after ex-President Mahinda Rajapaksa cancelled the visa of the expatriate chief executive and Middle Eastern carriers sold its stake and existed.
