This exclusive route aims to meet the growing demand for travel between South India and the culturally rich northern province of Sri Lanka, offering convenience for both business and leisure travelers. The new service will enhance connectivity, foster economic growth, and promote cultural exchange between the two regions.
Vinay Malhotra, Head of Global Sales at IndiGo, stated, “We are excited to expand our presence in Sri Lanka with this exclusive Tiruchirappalli-Jaffna route. Building on the success of our Chennai-Jaffna service, this new connection strengthens our network in the region.
