Blasts make Air India defer Mumbai-Colombo flight launch

New Delhi: Air India has deferred the launch of its Mumbai-Colombo flight following the Easter Sunday serial blasts in the Sri Lankan capital.
The five-times weekly was to start from May 1 but may now start a month later. AI, IndiGo, SpiceJet and Sri Lankan are continuing their existing flights between India and the island nation.
However, several travellers are postponing or cancelling their trips to the island. IndiGo on Thursday tweeted, “The full fee waiver on rescheduling / cancellation for all flights to / from Colombo has been extended till May 15, 2019.” Air India has done the same till April 30 and may extend the date further.
Passengers flying out of Colombo have been asked to reach the airport at least four hours before flight departure time due to heightened security measures.
