Five Flights a Week? That’s Almost a Full-Time Relationship!

With five weekly flights aboard their trusty Airbus A320s, Jetstar offers both morning and evening departures—perfect whether you're a sunrise adventurer or prefer to roll out of bed at sunset. Flexibility, thy name is Jetstar.

More Seats, More Fun

Jetstar is rolling out over 90,000 low-fare seats annually, which means you no longer need to choose between affording flights or affording dinner when you land. For Singaporeans, regional travelers, and anyone with wanderlust, Colombo is officially open for business (and selfies).

Why Colombo? Let Us Count the Ways.

Jetstar CEO John Simeone put it best: Sri Lanka is the destination for scenic coastlines, diverse landscapes, rich culture, and hospitality so warm, it could melt your stress away. Whether you’re chasing ancient ruins or just a plate of world-class curry, Colombo delivers.

But it’s not just about stunning vistas and spicy treats—Jetstar’s affordable fares also boost tourism, help local businesses, and make travel a lot more accessible for everyone. Who said budget travel couldn’t change the world?

A Star-Studded Welcome

From Changi Airport to Sri Lankan tourism bigwigs, everyone is buzzing about this new route. Changi Airport’s EVP, Mr. Lim Ching Kiat, pointed out that this connection opens the door for Singaporean travellers to explore Sri Lanka’s breathtaking sights, and for Sri Lankan travellers to use Singapore as a gateway to Southeast Asia and beyond. (Translation: More adventures, fewer headaches.)

The Schedule: Jetstar Asia Now Flies to Colombo

Jetstar’s flight times are designed to suit every itinerary:

  • Evening flights: Perfect for night owls heading out on Mondays, Wednesdays, or Saturdays.
  • Morning flights: Great for early birds jetting off on Thursdays or Sundays.

Fun fact: The return flight lands in Singapore bright and early the next day, so you’ll still make it to work on time. (You’re welcome, boss.)

Book Your Budget-Friendly Escape

Ready to trade the office cubicle for Colombo’s beaches? Or swap your HDB balcony garden for Sri Lanka’s lush landscapes? Jetstar Asia has you covered. 

(Disclaimer: Sri Lankan sunsets may ruin you for every other destination. Proceed with caution.)
