Jaffna International Airport Welcomes First International Charter Flight

The successful arrival of the chartered flight marks a significant achievement for both the airport and the region, enhancing Sri Lanka’s air travel network. The arrival is expected to boost tourism, trade, and economic activities in the northern part of the island, which has long been underserved in terms of international air travel.
As a vital gateway for future international flights, JIA aims to position itself as a key hub for both commercial and charter operations, attracting more visitors to experience the rich cultural heritage and natural beauty of the Jaffna Peninsula.
With this development, Jaffna is poised to become an even more prominent destination for tourists, while providing a much-needed boost to the local economy and tourism sector.
