To date, LLH holds the record for being the only national carrier handled charter flight in Sri Lanka.
We have catered to every kind of visitor there is, from families to corporates to students under our chief hostess Ayesha who is renowned for the personalized assistance offered to almost 10,000 guests over the years.
