“We decided to start a regular connection to Sri Lanka due to the very high tourist potential of this direction. Annually, more than 1.8 million passengers travel between Europe and Colombo.” he said.
Filo said further that LOT Airlines intends to bring down close to 10,000-15,000 polish travelers to Sri Lanka during the peak winter tourist season.
Moreover , he noted that direct air operations between two countries will be continued if LOT is satisfied with the performance of the operations, introduced during the given time period.
