Where these figures come from
Sri Lanka’s own regulator does not publish punctuality data
These figures come from the UK Civil Aviation Authority, which reports every flight at its own end of the route — whichever airline operates it. So this is not a picture of all air travel in Sri Lanka — domestic flights within Sri Lanka, and its routes to countries that publish nothing, are absent.
What the record shows
Because these flights are counted at the other end of the route, the picture is partial by construction. Domestic flying inside Sri Lanka does not appear, and neither do its routes to countries that publish nothing. What is here is accurate; it is simply not everything.

Common questions
Does Sri Lanka publish flight delay data?
No. Sri Lanka publishes no punctuality data of its own. The figures here come from the UK Civil Aviation Authority, which reports every flight at its own end of the route — so domestic flying inside Sri Lanka is not covered.
Can I claim compensation for a delayed flight from Sri Lanka?
There is no statutory compensation scheme for flights departing Sri Lanka. A cancellation normally entitles you to a refund under the airline's own conditions of carriage, and European rules may still reach your flight if the journey ends in the EU or UK on a European carrier.
