Strengthening Travel Links Between Gujarat and Sri Lanka
The new Ahmedabad–Colombo service by FitsAir will operate three times a week, catering to travellers from Gujarat—one of Sri Lanka’s fastest-growing source markets in India—and further strengthening Colombo’s appeal as a luxury getaway for Indian travellers.
Colombo Positioned as a Vibrant Lifestyle Destination
Located in the heart of Colombo, City of Dreams Sri Lanka aims to position the city as a vibrant hub for entertainment, leisure and lifestyle. Guests can stay at Cinnamon Life at City of Dreams or choose from Cinnamon Grand, Cinnamon Lakeside and Cinnamon Red for luxury and contemporary stays while exploring the city.
Curated Holiday Experiences for Indian Travellers
The direct Ahmedabad–Colombo flights also introduce curated Cinnamon holiday packages for Indian travellers, combining the City of Dreams Sri Lanka experience with visits to Kandy and beach stays at Cinnamon resorts across the island.
Industry Leaders on the New Route
Kamal Munasinghe, Senior Vice President, Colombo Hotels, Cinnamon Hotels & Resorts and General Manager, Cinnamon Life at City of Dreams, said, “India continues to be one of our most important markets, and Gujarat in particular has shown strong interest in Colombo as a leisure destination. These dedicated flights provide a seamless gateway for travellers to experience the vibrant energy, entertainment, and hospitality that define City of Dreams Sri Lanka, while exploring curated Cinnamon holiday experiences across the island.”
“Ahmedabad is one of India’s most vibrant commercial centres, and a city we’ve long wanted to bring into our network.
