A question about : Today only
Today is Sri Lankan airlines 35th Anniversary. To celebrate, it is offering an impressive 35% off business class flights and 20% off economy flights, to all of its destinations bookable online.
As a result of the discount, some prices are very impressive. Heathrow to Beijing, Hong Kong and Bangkok, all for under Ј1545 business class are good examples. Heathrow to Tokyo at Ј1754 in business class is also an excellent price.
In terms of the specific timing of the offer, it's valid until midnight on 1st September 2014 at the point of origin of the flight. The offer is valid for travel commencing 15 October, up to 10 December 2014. The discount will be applied automatically, there is no need for a discount code.
This leads to some very impressive flight prices, and it's well worth having a look. Return prices I found include:
London Heathrow - Hong Kong (business class): Ј1543 in October/November 2014
London Heathrow - Bangkok (business class): Ј1543 in October 2014
London Heathrow - Beijing (business class): Ј1538 in October 2014
London Heathrow - Tokyo (business class): Ј1754 in October/November 2014
Frankfurt - Hong Kong (business class): €1718 in October 2014
There are of course plenty of other routes available - if you're prepared to search and be flexible, you may well be able to grab a real bargain. While the prices I have seen are generally better with Sri Lankan airlines, it is worth comparing their prices to those in the current British Airways sale (as an example of the better prices we have seen with Sri Lankan airlines, Tokyo returns start at Ј1754 with Sri Lankan, and Ј2472 in the British Airways sale).
Notably, Sri Lankan airlines have recently upgraded their business class product. Flat beds are now the norm on long haul.
