SriLankan Airlines will add three weekly flights to Melbourne from November 15, increasing its services between Colombo and the Australian city in response to growing travel demand from Australia.
Deepal Perera, Head of Corporate Communications at SriLankan Airlines, said the additional services would bring the airline's weekly flights to Melbourne from seven to 10.
Accordingly, the airline will operate 10 weekly flights from Bandaranaike International Airport (BIA) to Melbourne, alongside its existing four weekly flights to Sydney.
With the latest expansion, SriLankan Airlines will operate a total of 14 flights per week between Sri Lanka and Australia.
The three additional Melbourne services will depart from BIA every Tuesday, Thursday and Sunday.
Passengers seeking further information can contact their travel agents, call the SriLankan Airlines hotline on 1979 or visit the airline's official website.
