to making every flight our customers take with us something special. Their safety,
comfort, and convenience are our most important concerns.

by events within our control and we do not get customers to their final destination on
the expected arrival day, we will provide reasonable overnight accommodations, subject
to availability. If a flight is adversely affected by events beyond our control.
In extreme circumstances, it is possible that a flight will cancel while on the ground in
the city to which it was diverted. When this happens, we will attempt to reroute our
customers on the next flight with available seats, or in some circumstances on another
airline or some other alternative means of transportation. If we are unable to reroute,
reasonable overnight accommodations will be provided by the Airline.
Essential Customer Needs During Extraordinary Delays
Our top priority is the safety and well-being of our customers, and we are focused on
having all our flights arrive and deplane on schedule. On very rare occasions, there may
be extraordinary events that result in very lengthy onboard delays. These are situations
in which an aircraft is delayed on the ground (other than on an active runway or taxiway)
but does not have access to a terminal gate for more than two hours. We have
developed detailed contingency plans at every domestic airport to address these
situations. In such events, we will make every reasonable effort to ensure our customer
essential needs, such as snack food, water, restroom facilities, and basic medical
assistance, are met.
Assistance When Flight Has Been Delayed or Cancelled
We expect, as customers do, that Airline will operate flights on time. On occasion, the
weather or other challenges can make it difficult, if not impossible to stay on schedule.
When a delay or cancellation does occur, our goal is to get our customer reach
destination safely, and as quickly as possible.
Baggage Delivery
Sri Lankan Airlines will devote extensive resources and efforts to ensure our customers
and their bags travel on the same flight. In the event theirr checked bags do not arrive
on the flight, reasonable efforts will be made to ensure that the bag is returned to them
within 24 hours for flights within the U.S.
If customer is unable to locate a bag upon arrival, they should notify a baggage service
agent prior to leaving the airport. At that time, the bag delivery procedure will be
explained, and customers will be provided with a brochure explaining the baggage
recovery process.
Once a delayed or misrouted bag is located, a delivery company will return the bag to
thier local address at our expense.
