Expanding a long-standing partnership with Malaysia
Airlines, SriLankan Airlines said it has extended its network in the
Australasian Region adding seven new codeshare destinations in Australia,
Vietnam and Malaysia.
To cater to growing demand between Australia and Sri Lanka,
SriLankan Airlines will provide daily services to Adelaide, Brisbane and Perth
via Kuala Lumpur. Daily connections to
Sydney and Melbourne via Kuala Lumpur already exist. With this addition SriLankan
will provide code share services to five major cities in Australia.
Additionally, Saigon and Hanoi in Vietnam and the islands of
Penang and Langkawi in Malaysia have also been added as codeshare destinations
via Kuala Lumpur.
“SriLankan is consistently looking at improving air
connectivity between Sri Lanka and the Austral-Asia Region, which in effect
will increase the number of visitors to Sri Lanka. These new code- share destinations will
further enhance our service to this fast growing region which according to
official figures, had the highest growth of tourist traffic of 25.3 percent in
2013,” said SriLankan’s Head of Commercial Operations Mohamed Fazeel.
Traffic between Sri Lanka and Vietnam is expected to grow as
Vietnam’s socio-economic stability and close cultural ties are increasingly
attracting visitors between Vietnam and Sri Lanka.
