IndiGo Expands International Network with New, Direct Flights between Delhi and Colombo

Posted on March 27, 2026March 27, 2026 by S Joseph

 

IndiGo, India’s preferred airline, is further strengthening its connectivity to Sri Lanka, with the launch of new, direct flights between Delhi and Colombo. Commencing 29 March 2026, the airline will operate six flights every week on this route using its A320 aircraft, offering seamless and convenient travel options for customers.

 

India and Sri Lanka share deep historical, cultural, and economic ties; improved connectivity will significantly strengthen these relations by boosting trade and tourism between the two neighbouring countries.

 

With the addition of these flights, IndiGo will operate over 55 weekly flights to Colombo from five cities in India, namely Mumbai, Bengaluru, Hyderabad, Chennai and now Delhi. IndiGo also connects Chennai and Tiruchirappalli to Jaffna with 10 weekly flights. This expanded network further solidifies IndiGo’s presence in the island nation, consistently offering affordable, reliable, and hassle-free travel experiences to its customers.

 

Customers can plan and book their travel through IndiGo’s official website www.goIndiGo.in, mobile app, or authorised travel partners. They can also pre-book their meals and beverages, including alcoholic beverages. Additionally, they can personalise their travel experiences by opting for offerings that suit their respective preferences, including UpFront and Flexi, which give best value, comfort seats, complimentary snacks, and hassle-free cancellations.
