Alliance Air commences daily flights between Chennai & Jaffna

Daily commercial flights between Chennai and Sri Lanka’s Jaffna city have commenced with India’s Alliance Air increasing the frequency from the earlier four-times-a-week service, a move that is set to further boost travel and trade between the two countries.

The move to increase the frequency of flights between Chennai and the Tamil-dominated Jaffna city was announced earlier this month by Union Minister of Civil Aviation Jyotiraditya Scindia during the Travel Agents Association of India (TAAI) annual convention hosted in Colombo.
