BACK GROUND SriLankan Airlines operates seven A330-300s, configured with 269 seats in economy and 28 fully flat seats in business class. These are mainly operated on medium- and long-haul routes, including the Colombo-Singapore service. Flight UL308 is scheduled to depart Colombo Bandaranaike International Airport at 1215 and land at Singapore Changi Airport's Terminal 3 at 1845.
CHECK-IN I checked in online, which allowed me to request a special meal (vegetarian Hindu) and choose my seat free-of-charge. All passengers (including Singapore residents) must complete an electronic SG Arrival Card in the three days before they enter Singapore. Seat reservation is complimentary for Platinum members of the carrier's FlySmiLes loyalty programme, oneworld Emerald members, business class passengers, passengers with an economy flex ticket (myself included) and those travelling with infants or eligible for wheelchair facilities.
