Sharjah is the budget gateway to the UAE, right next to Dubai, with direct low-cost flights from Colombo in about 4 hours 30 minutes.
Airlines on Colombo to Sharjah
- Air Arabia — the low-cost carrier that makes this route so affordable.
- SriLankan Airlines — full-service alternative.
Why choose Sharjah
If Dubai fares are high, Sharjah is often cheaper and only a short drive from Dubai city. Indicative fares start around LKR 88,000 return. Note that low-cost fares usually charge separately for baggage and meals — we'll build the right fare so there are no surprises, and you'll still need a UAE visa, which we arrange.
