Flights from cities from Moldova to Colombo

Flights to Colombo are mainly served by Bandaranaike International Airport (CMB), located about 32 km north of the city in Katunayake. It is Sri Lanka’s primary international gateway, handling most flights from Europe, Asia, and the Middle East. Ratmalana Airport (RML), closer to the city, is used mainly for domestic and private aviation.

From Bandaranaike International Airport (CMB), you can take express bus E03 to Colombo Fort in about 45–60 minutes. Taxis and ridesharing services provide direct transfers in 30–45 minutes depending on traffic. Train connections are available from nearby Katunayake but require transfers. A pre-arranged taxi offers the most convenient option after arrival.

Colombo is generally considered relatively safe for travelers, with moderate crime levels according to local data. Tourist areas such as Galle Face and Fort are busy and generally secure. Petty theft can occur in crowded places, so keeping belongings secure is recommended. Using official transport and checking government advisories helps ensure a safer trip.
