This flight increase is a testament to our commitment in providing our passengers with the best travel experience possible, onboard the World’s Best Airline. With more flights to and from Sri Lanka via our home hub, Hamad International Airport, we hope to make it easier for more travelers to discover their dream destinations within our robust network.”

The new flights will offer passengers more options to connect to major destinations in the Middle East, Europe, Africa, and more via Hamad International Airport, Skytrax’s World’s Best Airport.
