World renowned carrier to operate twice weekly service from October
At the start of the 2016 winter schedule, KLM Royal Dutch Airlines will resume direct service to Sri Lanka’s Colombo International Airport from October, the airline said in a statement Monday.
The first flight to Colombo is scheduled to depart on Monday, 31 October. This marks KLM’s return to Colombo after an absence of almost 20 years. KLM suspended service to the Sri Lankan capital (then served via Abu Dhabi) in 1997 as the war escalated.
