All airline ticket prices were increased by 27 per cent as of midnight yesterday (10).
Chairman of the Civil Aviation Authority of Sri Lanka, Upul Dharmadasa said the price hike is due to the Sri Lankan Rupee depreciating against the US dollar.
The US dollar previously traded at Rs. 203.66, but increased to Rs. 259.99 after the Central Bank allowed the exchange rate to float.
