Qatar Airways announced the expansion of its codeshare cooperation with Sri Lankan Airlines, starting from 23 December. This new codeshare agreement will strengthen the two airlines’ strategic partnership, first initiated in 2016.
The expanded codeshare agreement will be rolled out in phases and once fully implemented will allow Sri Lankan Airlines’ passengers to book travel to 33 additional Qatar Airways destinations in Europe, America, and Africa. Combined with the two airlines’ existing codeshare agreement, this brings the total Qatar Airways destinations offered under Sri Lankan Airlines’ flight numbers to 53.
Sri Lankan Airline passengers are now able to book travel to eight additional Qatar Airways’ destinations – Athens, Greece; Belgrade, Serbia; Brussels, Belgium; Dublin, Ireland; Helsinki, Finland; Munich, Germany; Prague, Czech Republic and Thessaloniki, Greece.
Qatar Airways’ passengers will benefit from access to exciting new destinations in the Maldives thanks to the expanded codeshare agreement. They will now be able to book travel on Sri Lankan Airlines’ flights to the island of Gan in Addu Atoll, the southernmost point of the Maldives.
The new destination complements the existing Sri Lankan Airlines’ routes available to Qatar Airways passengers – Colombo in Sri Lanka and Malé in the Maldives.
