SriLankan Airlines Launches Daytime Flight from Bangalore to Colombo for Weekend Getaways
25 October 2024; Bangalore - SriLankan Airlines is scheduled to launch a new daytime flight between Bangalore and Colombo starting 31 October 2024‚ bringing the total weekly operations between the two cities to 10 flights. The new flight timings are ideal for both Indian holidaymakers and business event attendees travelling to Sri Lanka for short weekend escapes.
Flight UL 1174 will depart from Bangalore to Colombo at 09:40 AM every Thursday‚ Friday‚ and Saturday‚ arriving in Colombo at 11:10 AM. The corresponding return flight UL 1173 will leave Colombo at 07:20 AM and reach Bangalore at 08:40 AM also every Thursday through Saturday.
The schedule of the new service is designed to offer a more flexible travel experience for Bengalureans jetting out to Sri Lanka‚ whether for a vacation or a workation. It provides more daytime hours on the island while being conveniently scheduled closer to the weekend. This allows travellers to pack more into their itinerary, make the most of their visit, and return home in time for the start of a new week‚ making it the most convenient flight option for weekend travel to Sri Lanka.
Sri Lanka’s popularity as a holiday and MICE destination in the Indian outbound travel market continues to rise‚ thanks in part to the geographic and cultural proximity of the two countries. Most Indians are likely to find the comforting familiarity of home in Sri Lanka that is not found in other parts of the world. Additionally‚ the island’s compactness‚ coupled with the new flight schedule‚ enables Indians to enjoy a range of diverse experiences in just a few days‚ from the stunning southern shores and the historical kovils of the north to the cool climes of the central province‚ topped off with some shopping and rejuvenating wellness treatments in Colombo.
The seamless schedule is not the only reason that makes SriLankan Airlines a great choice for Indians. Travellers who are members of the airline’s frequent flyer program‚ FlySmiLes‚ can earn 1‚174 miles and 1‚173 miles when they travel on UL 1174 and UL 1173‚ respectively. Customers can also savour mouthwatering Indian vegetarian and non-vegetarian cuisine while enjoying the warmth and friendliness that embody the essence of Sri Lanka when traveling aboard SriLankan Airlines.
Aside from the new additions‚ SriLankan Airlines will continue to operate its existing daily service between Bangalore and Colombo. India is the only country to have nine of its cities featured in SriLankan Airlines’ network‚ including Delhi‚ Mumbai‚ Hyderabad‚ Kochi‚ Trivandrum‚ Chennai‚ Trichy and Madurai‚ in addition to Bangalore‚ Altogether, SriLankan operates close to 90 flights every week between India and Sri Lanka.
