Bandaranaike Airport is the main hub for the national carriers Sri Lankan Airlines and Mihin Lanka.
Friendly officers are another positive aspect of Bandaranaike Airport.
Always good to buy a few bottles at Duty Free after arrival as out side the prices are at least 100% higher.
Also good to have a driver waiting outside in order to avoid long talks with potential scammers, who love to charge as much as they can when simply connecting to regular taxis.
