The Sri Lankan Airlines, which is the largest single carrier out of the Bandaranaike International Airport, will see 17 percent of its seat capacity affected by the eight-hour closure of the runway during the day from Jan. 6 to April 6.
The Sri Lankan government said last month that the airport will be closed for eight hours a day during which a selected area of the runway would be renovated for four hours and allowed to cool down for another four hours.
