SriLankan Cargo offers ‘1USD per kg’ package for freight from West Asia
View(s):SriLankan Cargo will revolutionise air freight to Colombo from seven cities in West Asia with the launch of its ‘A Dollar A Kilo!’ service this month.
The new service has been especially designed to cater to the needs of Sri Lanka’s migrant workforce in that region, who often send gifts, baggage and other items back home through sea freight. The service has no restrictions on size and weight, and can be used by anyone to send anything from the there to Colombo, the national airline catering unit said in a media release.
Apart from the low cost, with a fee of US$1 per kg with no hidden charges, this service will also provide the greatest level of convenience, with packages being picked up from the very doorsteps of customers in West Asia.The service is being made available to customers in Dubai, Abu Dhabi, Doha, Kuwait, Dammam, Riyadh and Jeddah. SriLankan currently operates 42 flights a week between these cities and Colombo.
