Extremely Disappointing Experience with…
Extremely Disappointing Experience with Sri Lankan Airlines. I recently had a very frustrating experience with Sri Lankan Airlines. Our flight, originally scheduled to depart at 8:30 PM, was delayed multiple times without any valid explanations. First, it was rescheduled to 12:30 AM on the day of the flight, and finally, we only departed at 3:00 AM the following morning. This meant a nearly 7-hour delay, during which time we were left waiting at the airport with no clear communication or valid reasons provided. The airline staff were unresponsive and seemed indifferent to passengers' inquiries, offering no meaningful assistance or updates. To make matters worse, the in-flight experience was just as disappointing. Despite paying nearly 200,000 LKR for the ticket, the economy class screens were non-functional throughout the 8-hour flight. The food and beverages served were extremely basic, equivalent to an ordinary daily meal with nothing special to justify the price. Cleanliness was also a major issue; there were remnants of food and cutlery scattered on the floor, suggesting the plane hadn’t been properly cleaned or vacuumed before our journey. Based on this experience, I would never choose to fly with Sri Lankan Airlines again and certainly wouldn’t recommend it to anyone. It’s disheartening to see such poor service and lack of care for passengers.
