National carrier SriLankan Airlines has resumed flights to the Russian capital, Moscow after six-year break where it will operate a weekly scheduled flight between Bandaranaike International Airport (BIA) and Moscow's Domodedovo Airport (DME).

Accordingly, a SriLankan flight UL-534 carrying tourists from Russia arrived in BIA this morning.

The resumption of services connecting Colombo and Moscow is a link that will not only facilitate travel but will be the impetus for building closer bilateral business connections between the two countries. (T.K.G Kapila)
