SriLankan Airlines tries to attract Indian tourists again by two-for-one packages

NEW DELHI: State-owned SriLankan Airlines will launch two-for-the-price-of-one holiday packages in a bid to again attract Indian tourists — the biggest source of inbound travellers for the island nation till last April. Then the economic crisis and declaration of emergency in the emerald island led to desi globetrotters skipping Sri Lanka for other nearby destinations like the Maldives. With tourism vital to revive the economy, the emerald island is looking at Indian travellers to resume their travels.

“Our month-long promotional campaign (‘dil full of Sri Lanka’) will be launched for bookings on February 4 and will be for travel till May 31, 2023.
