Male to Colombo A330 Business Class. On time check-in and good flight punctuality. Onboard clean interior and spacious seats, very comfy. Excellent crew, helpful and friendly service. Male check-in was good. Great food and beverage choices. Nice in-flight safety video, kids love it. Staff was very attentive to requests and are pleased with the service. Good choice of onboard duty free items. Will definitely fly SriLankan next time. Highly recommended. Overall good in-flight service. Cheers!

I've flown with Sri Lankan a number of times but I will never fly with them again after our last experience. We booked tickets from London to Colombo and Singapore a couple months before our holiday and choose Sri Lankan because they were slightly cheaper than others. A month before the holiday they cancelled one of the flights and ... Read the complete review

I have travelled with Sri Lankan airlines on many occasions on different routes- all from Heathrow to Sri Lanka, Singapore, & Thailand. I have always found the airline to be competent and the staff friendly and well- presented. Whilst travelling the planes have always left and arrived within the stated time. The fleet of ...

I used this company in September 2006 to travel from heathrow to Sri Lanka and back and again to Thailand. It is is the best flight company I have flown with. The staff are all very friendly and attentive and throughout the flight reguarly ensured everyone had enough drinks. The hot flannels were very refreshing especially after ...

SriLankan Airline flight review March 2005 we flew Airbus 340 Economy - Heathrow to Male & Male to Heathrow. Superb! Smooth flights both ways. Outbound ( 9 1/2 hrs) was on the newest plane with touchscreen tv & footrests. The map showing the journey so far & flight details were helpful on a long ... Read the complete review

Flew with them from London to Colombo back in March 2004 and was very impressed. They use modern aircraft, and the legroom is pretty good; all economy seats had seat-back TV screens, which are essential for long flights such as this. Entertainment was good - lots of fairly recent films - they even had views from the ... Read the complete review

Just got back from a holiday and flew 'scheduled' SriLankan Air from London Heathrow to Colombo Sri Lanka (and back a fortnight later). After reading the mixed ops on this site - from one extreme to the other I felt I should add a more up to date one. We got to the airport about 20 minutes before the obligatory 2 hours ...

I must add a contrary view to a number of 5* opinions I have read about Sri Lankan Airlines. We travelled with them recently and had a variety of problems. The outward flight from London to Colombo was no problem - in fact the hotel was not expecting us to be on time, because that particular flight was almost always late! ... Read the complete review

We recently travelled Heathrow to Colombo return with Sri Lanka on an Airbus 340, and the cabin staff were really miserable. This had a real big impact on us because it was our major holiday of the year. We travelled out Buisness class, where the staff were pleasant, but nothing special. It was definately well worth the extra cost to ... Read the complete review

I flew Sri Lankan airlines to India/ Sri Lanka in February, and tell you, it is the best deal for your money. It was the cheaper than BA/ Lufthansa (a bit more than Gulf air, but it isnt worth the savings..) Flights arrived on time, no delay in baggage claims, and the connections were on time as well. The cabin crew were very pleasant ... Read the complete review

I flew Sri Lankan (used to be called Air Lanka) London to Colombo, and enjoyed the flight. Cabin crew, ground staff at the check-in counters, and the aircraft all superb. These new airbus jets have cameras installed in the front and belly, and they feed the vedeos to the screen infront of your seat, so yo can view the landings (same ... Read the complete review

Travelled London - Colombo with them and had an excellent flight. Fast efficient ground service. Service on board was really superb. Modern comfortable plane. Very friendly efficient staff who went out of their way to be helpful. If you ask they dont wake you to force feed you making the flight all the more bearable. Food was excellent. ...
