I asked the check-in agent in CGK how the usual load is, she said that this UL flight is mostly full since CMB is a popular transit airport before heading to Middle East from CGK or vice versa, given the fact that UL offers a more economical price compared to direct flight with GA, QR, EY, EK or SV.
When on board, I saw many Middle Eastern nationals, Indonesian and then a handful of Sri Lankan in C cabin.

On the contrary gpeso8, it was a very full flight, both in economy and business. I remember business was 100% full. That's why UL decided to change the previously A321 then A332 to A333 for this route.

None of my friends have an idea of going to Sri Lanka as well. But overall, I loved this trip, especially because the people there are so friendly.
