Accordingly, with the commencement of domestic scheduled operations to Jaffna from Colombo Airport, Ratmalana, the Northern part of the country will be linked to the domestic civil air transportation network which can be considered as a national achievement. A large number of native Tamil business communities live in Colombo, especially in Bambalapitiya, Wellawata, Mount-Lavinia, Dehiwala will be benefited by this as they are willing to have frequent travel connectivity reducing their travel time. Further, this connectivity will help international tourists to make their trips to Northern destinations and boost tourism. This initiation will explore the opportunities to capture a portion of the rapidly growing travel market in the Northern and Western parts of Sri Lanka.
