Yup; I have been flying this route for a few years now; although, I should mention that on the return, EK does MLE-CMB-DXB, with a 1 hour stop for picking up more passengers from Colombo; for people who love to fly, it's really not that much of an inconvenience, especially if one enjoys take offs and landings.

I was told at the F check in desk a couple of days ago that there had been some unexpected delays and they were looking at a date around March 1st. Seems as though they had isssues with customs on some of the furnishings.

Too bad. I just flew from there and not having the lounge was a big letdown. I really thought it would be open by our next trip in February. Had a horrible meal at the Palm last time and the voucher did not go very far anyway. The business class voucher is $40. How much is the first class voucher worth?
