Friday, 7 March 20143 min read

SriLankan Airlines will become a full member of the Oneworld alliance on May 1.

The national airline of Sri Lanka received clearance to board Oneworld after successfully completing a thorough review of its readiness conducted by Cathay Pacific Airways, which is sponsoring its entry into the alliance.

Its addition to Oneworld will come a month after the alliance welcomes TAM and US Airways on board, on March 31, concluding the group’s biggest yet expansion programme.
