SriLankan Airlines Business Class

Airline overview

SriLankan Airlines is a oneworld member offering direct flights from London to Colombo. The warm Sri Lankan hospitality and Ceylon tea service create a distinctive business class experience.

The business class experience

SriLankan Business Class features Lie-flat staggered with direct aisle access. Seat width is 21 inches and fully extended bed length is 76 inches — comfortable for passengers up to about 6'3" (190cm) to sleep fully flat. The seat layout on SriLankan Airlines's long-haul widebody aircraft typically offers direct aisle access for every business class passenger, so you never have to climb over a seatmate.

In-flight entertainment is delivered via 15.4-inch touchscreen. Dining on SriLankan Airlines: Sri Lankan and international cuisine, Ceylon tea service. Baggage allowance in business class: 2 × 30kg checked. All flights include amenity kits, premium bedding, and priority boarding/baggage handling.

Lounges and ground experience

At the home hub: Serendib Business Lounge (CMB). At other airports worldwide: oneworld partner lounges worldwide. Lounge access is included with your business class ticket — you show your boarding pass at the lounge entrance and receive food, drinks, WiFi, and dedicated workspaces until boarding time.

On the ground at departure, SriLankan Airlines business class passengers get dedicated check-in counters, fast-track security lanes where available, and priority boarding. At arrival, baggage is tagged with priority labels and comes out first — typically saving 15-30 minutes versus economy on heavily-loaded flights.
