January 11, Colombo (LNW): Minister of Ports and Civil Aviation Anura Karunathilake has announced that the government is preparing to roll out a new initiative aimed at reinforcing Sri Lanka’s domestic aviation network, with the goal of giving fresh momentum to the tourism sector.
Speaking to journalists in Galle today (11), the Minister stressed that a modern and efficient internal air travel system is essential if Sri Lanka is to position itself as a premium travel destination. He noted that improving connectivity between key tourist locations would not only save time for visitors but also enhance the overall travel experience.
Karunathilake added that attracting high-spending travellers requires more than scenic appeal, pointing out that the quality of services and infrastructure offered to tourists must meet international expectations.
Strengthening domestic aviation, he said, would play a critical role in supporting luxury tourism, regional development and increased investment in the sector.
