Chennai August 18th, 2015: SriLankan Airlines the national carrier of Sri Lanka
in a time span of four months has increased three new frequencies on the
Chennai – Colombo route. Chennai is one of the fastest growing markets for this
national carrier and enhancement of its flights is a method of capitalising the
increase in passenger traffic from this region. The additional frequencies will
operate from the 16th of August on Tuesday, Thursday and Sunday, at 11:05
hrs. The addition of this flight brings the total frequency of flights between Sri
Lanka and India to 89 flights per week. This announcement reinforces the
significance of the Indian market for SriLankan Airlines, especially Chennai.
Each
flight will feature an array of bespoke services, world-class in-flight
entertainment including a combination of Tamil language programs and signature
SriLankan Airlines hospitality services. The purpose of re-launching these flights is to
increase the frequency of the airline, providing passengers with added convenience.
Regional Manager for
India, Lalith De Silva said, “Last year we had over 225,000 arrivals on
SriLankan Airlines from Chennai to Colombo. It is certain that Chennai is our
fastest growing market in Southern India. We see the market as a growing and
crucial business hub for Multinationals. The addition in flights is a result of
growing passenger traffic from this region.”
He further added, “The increased frequency also reinforces our
commitment to Chennai and will strengthen the deep commercial and bilateral ties
between India & Sri Lanka. With this infusion of additional frequencies, we
will appeal to both business and leisure customers aiming to provide
convenience and better connectivity."
Launched in 1979,
SriLankan is currently expanding and further diversifying its wide range of
products and services in order to drive the country’s ongoing boom in tourism
and economic development.

airlines’ hub is located at Bandaranaike International Airport in Colombo, providing
convenient connections to its global route network of 95 destinations in 44
