An SLTB spokesman told the Daily News that the luxury bus service will start concurrently with the opening of the Mattala Rajapaksa International Airport on March 18 (Monday).

He said 10 luxury buses will be deployed on this route initially. “We plan to add more buses from the North and East and main towns and cities across the country on this route in due course.

“Timetables and fares of luxury buses plying on this route will be released in the coming days,” he said.

“We will purchase these luxury buses from India’s Ashok Leyland on an earn and pay basis,” he added.
