SriLankan Airlines which launched Vizag, Hyderabad and Coimbatore this month is all set to tap the growing potential of Indian aviation market. With the recently launched routes as well as the seasonal flights to Gaya and Varanasi which will resume in August, SriLankan is all set to operate 126 flights a week to 14 destinations in India serving more Indian points than any other international airline.
In addition to opening these new routes, SriLankan has also implemented several other network changes from 15th July in line with its strategy of adapting its route network to align with the current market realities. These include - new daily non-stop flights to Guangzhou, new five times a week non-stop flights to Hong Kong, increased frequency from daily to thrice in a day to Bangkok and from daily to 11 times a week from Delhi.
SriLankan’s destination count is set to increase further from the upcoming winter season, as it launches new daily non-stop flights to Melbourne, Australia. This represents SriLankan’s re-entry to Australia after a gap of sixteen years. The airline has already seen very strong forward bookings on this route – which gives confidence that it is the right choice. Further, expansions of services on strategically important routes are also planned for the winter season.
