A new regional airline for Sri Lanka — designed for those who love the island, and those who call it home.

Safety. Service. On Schedule.

The promise

The promise

Jaffna. Batticaloa. Trincomalee. In under an hour.

Sri Lanka is a small island. It shouldn't take a day to cross it. Palyra reconnects the North and East to Colombo — so a weekend in Jaffna is actually a weekend, and a business trip to Trincomalee is a day.

  1. 01

    Under an hour

    Colombo to Jaffna, Batticaloa, or Trincomalee in under 60 minutes. What used to be a full day on the road is now a short flight.

  2. 02

    Connect at Katunayake

    Land international at Bandaranaike (CMB), connect straight through to a Palyra domestic. No overnight in Colombo. No second airport transfer.

  3. 03

    30 kg per passenger

    Generous luggage — enough for the family visit, the wedding, or the year's supplies. Brought home in one trip.

  4. 04

    Priced like a car hire

    Fares comparable to hiring a car and driver for the same route — with hours of your life back.
