The official operator of Sri Lanka's Bandaranaike International Airport, Airport and Aviation Services (Sri Lanka) Ltd, issued a statement confirming there are no plans to close the airport despite the spreading coronavirus outbreak. The reassurance comes as governments worldwide implement travel restrictions and border controls.
For Sri Lankans abroad and international visitors with scheduled flights, this official statement provides clarity. However, check with your airline directly regarding operational schedules and any restrictions on your specific route—airport operations and airline service are coordinated but separate.
