Why Fly Private
Why Fly Private to Sri Lanka?
Sri Lanka is emerging as a luxury destination rivaling the Maldives. Colombo Ratmalana (RML) is the dedicated private airport, closer to the city than the main Bandaranaike airport. Air taxi services fly guests directly to tea estates and south coast beaches.
Private Aviation in Sri Lanka
Sri Lanka is the Pearl of the Indian Ocean, an island nation of remarkable diversity combining ancient Buddhist temples, colonial hill stations, wildlife parks, and some of Asia finest surfing beaches. Two private jet routes serve Sri Lanka, and the country post-conflict tourism renaissance has brought increasing HNWI interest in luxury boutique hotels and sustainability-focused eco-resorts.
Key Airports
Colombo Bandaranaike International Airport (CMB) is Sri Lanka main gateway. Mattala Rajapaksa International (HRI) near Hambantota can accommodate larger private jets. Ratmalana (RML) is closer to Colombo city and used for smaller private aircraft. Ampara and Batticaloa serve the east coast.
Top Destinations
