SriLankan Airlines now flying twice-weekly to Seoul

SriLankan Airlines launched its new Colombo–Seoul route on 26 October 2025, operating twice weekly with an Airbus A330-300. This addition strengthens the airline's foothold in East Asia and opens direct connectivity between Sri Lanka and South Korea for the first time on this carrier.

For Sri Lankan travellers, this means easier access to Seoul's business, culture, and food scene without routing through a third hub. South Korea's visa policies are also favourable for Sri Lankan passport holders—another reason to mark this new route as an option for your next trip.

If you've been eyeing Korea—whether for work, study, or a holiday—you now have a direct path. Check SriLankan's website for schedules and fares; new routes often come with promotional pricing in the early weeks.
