Sri Lanka Air ways

worst carrier of all time - Sri Lanka Forum

A few months ago I had had the most terrible travel experiences with the Sri Lanka Airlines and wanted to divide them with those considering flying with them. First, I will be sharing the good experiences with the trip to Sri Lanka, our plane back was a real bad dream. My 2 year old and my friends went from Paris to Colombo over the holiday season.

One of the restrooms didn't work. Terrible thing was she came back. and it was a one-and-a-half hours ride from Colombo to Heathrow, and it was a no-dream. and the airplane was even older than the one we were in before.

There are no beverages, no refreshments that will be delivered after 7hrs. Had to go to the tail of the airplane and ask for gravy and she could give me something. Also, I saw a serving trays full of different kinds of fruit liquids standing on the edge waiting to be serviced that was not serviced until 4hrs later ( which we declined to eat as the OJ had sat out). They eventually serviced us the next food and lesson before we arrived at Heathrow.

And when we got there, we were starving and exhausted from a hell of a ride. There was a connection with a different carrier in Rome which I had missed and which caused me a great deal of expense. Had you been travelling with 2 different ticket numbers, this would have been the case with all carriers.

Failure to make a reservation is not the fault of either one. Yes, at some point the carriers come too late, that' normally, they are planes and can break at any moment, it can be a new aircraft, but you are still at great risks, so we as travellers should be expecting this kind of delay, but I am hopeful that Srilananan carriers will manage their passenger better than any other carrier, we should not be disturbed just because of one person, Best Crew on twelve trips with two children per trip per year, Best Crew on twelve trips with two children per trip per year, but you are still at great risks.

Between three and five years old, they liken a pea to a airplane "Be my visitor to tell what they mean". Sri Lanka Airlines is like the Sri Lanka nation "amazing". I' m consistent with the most horrible airlines day ever. I' ve just come back from a complete bad dream in Sri Lanka. Don't complain about the airplane because we weren't allowed aboard!

From Colombo I flew to Singapore with the Sri Lanka carrier and in the late afternoon I had a running bus ticket to Australia with another one. On the previous morning we had visited the website of the Sri Lankan Airlines and allocated places via "Manage my bookings". For 9 hrs we were detained in a room without even an offering of fresh soap.

Eventually we were accompanied to their London based office which was equipped with WLAN so we could make "our own" agreement about an obviously missing plane (business glass) Singapore/Gold Coastline. There was a lady who asked us to go rude because the lounges were only for businessmen and 1. class passengers.

We were pushed on an Emirates plane to Singapore after another 2 hours in a small room. As it was a vacation period, all flights were really full and after an unplanned trip to Singapore we were able to buy places on Qantas for $1500 each. There is no possibility of taking out cover as the Sri Lanka Airline will not give us the required confirmation to confirm their account.

I and my husbands are traveling 3 to 4 trips a year with different companies for bussines and free timers. All my life I NEVER came across such discompetence or was 100% at the expense of the carrier so mistreated. Sri Lankan Airways is the poorest company we have ever used.

From Toronto we flew with Air Canada with a Sri Lankan Airlines from London Heathrow to Colombo, Sri Lanka. We were shocked to hear from the SLA agent after a 9 hour over New Ark trip that we had no reservation on the trip because Aircanada had canceled our trip.

This was a shocking moment for us because this is the first occasion that we have been refused certified reservations. After about anhour and several heated debates they found us two places near the washroom, quite stinking and there we stayed several ours in Colombo.

By the time we got to Colombo, we were impolite in shock when we found out that my wife's pocket had not been received and had been accidentally sent to Mumbai. Because of the bad quality of the aircraft managed, old and filthy, I would not suggest this company. Everyone has their opinions about air carriers, not necessarily positively.

Being Sri Lanka I have gained good and bad impressions with some of the world's most innovative carriers like Emirates, Qatar & Cathay, but it is all part of your aviation impression. Nevertheless, we all have the option of selecting an air carrier, but we still choose to travel on a cheap ticket to meet our budgets.

What is the best thing for everyone to ask themselves, is it really valuable to fly with an air company that is costly, has a 5-star rate or a cheap air company with compromise services? Usually there are one or two members of the flight crews at the rear of the aircraft! However, you can always go to both galleys on the airplane and enjoy any food and drinks you like, this is what Sri Lanka calls "hospitality".

As I see it, the only good response to this dysfunctional carrier comes from Colombo, Sri Lanka.

And yes, I have traveled with many low cost carriers and accepted the fact that "you get what you buy for". Despite many e-mails to Sri Lanka airline companies, I am still awaiting an answer regarding the things they did to me in January. I have not had any trouble with Sri Lanka airline companies.

I have used other carriers in the past and found that the aircraft are much newer, but that is from London to their base in the Midwest, from there to Colombo is a switch to an older, much narrower aircraft. I' d rather be paying a little more for a one-way outfit.

If the Sri Lankan airline companies got some newer planes into their hands, then I would have no problems at all.....
