In June 2015 Mihin Lanka commenced direct flights to Kolkata 3 times a week. This offering is now allowing cricket –crazy fans access to affordable flights to Kolkata to take in the ICC World Twenty20 experience.


With cricket fever setting in as the Asia Cup drew to a close, those who enjoy the shorter version of the game can now support their favourite team on the field at this world class event. Incidentally Kolkata’s historic Eden Gardens stadium will host the final of the ICC World Twenty20 2016 which is approximately an hour away from the Netaji Subhas Chandra Bose International Airport.


During the past few years Mihin Lanka has strategically expanded its network offering to provide access to tourism, business and pilgrimage opportunities in the region and is the only airline to offer a direct flight between Colombo and Kolkata at an affordable cost.  Mihin Lanka also flew the National Cricket Team to Dhaka recently at the beginning of the Asia Cup allowing the team to experience the Airline’s signature hospitality on board.
