About Sri Lanka

Flights to Sri Lanka: Lock in your island escape

Sri Lanka is where laid-back beach days meet wild jungle adventures. You can start your morning with string hoppers in Colombo, wander tea fields by lunch, and watch the sun set over the ocean by dinner. The surf spots, ancient ruins, friendly faces are all waiting for you. 

The mix of cultures and flavours makes every stop feel special. Whether you’re into food, surf, or just soaking up the sun, there’s something for everyone. And with direct flights to Sri Lanka from Australia, getting there is easier than you think.

Where you can fly direct to {destination} from

Where is the airport in {destination}?

Bandaranaike International Airport sits in Katunayake, about 32 kms north of Colombo’s centre. Getting there is pretty straightforward:

  • Airport transfer: The best pick if you want a no-fuss ride, especially with big bags or an early flight.
  • Taxi: Found all over Colombo. Takes around 45 minutes to an hour. Always ask the driver to use the meter.
  • Bus: Around LKR 300-350 from central Colombo. Takes about 1.5 to 2 hours, so allow extra time.
  • Train: Cheapest option, but trains can be slow and crowded. Best if you’re not in a rush.

When is the cheapest time to fly to {destination}

May to early September is your best bet for cheaper fares. You’ll get great deals, fewer crowds, and still plenty to explore up north and along the east coast. Prices climb from December to March, with peak demand over Christmas and New Year. Skip those dates if you want to save big.

Visa/Passport requirements when flying to {destination}

You’ll need an Electronic Travel Authorisation (ETA) before you fly. Sort it online ahead of time—it’s quick and costs about US$50 for a short stay. If you’ve recently been to a country with yellow fever or cholera, you’ll need to show proof of vaccination when you arrive. Babies under one year old are exempt.

How early to arrive at the airport

Get to your home airport at least three hours before your flight to Sri Lanka.
