SriLankan Airlines has earned the prestigious 2025 APEX Best Entertainment Award for the Central/Southern Asia region, a recognition unveiled at the FTE APEX Asia Expo held in Singapore on November 20, 2024.
This honor is especially significant as the APEX Awards are based exclusively on verified passenger feedback, which reflects the experiences of over one million flights from 600 airlines. The awards focus on critical elements such as seat comfort, cabin service, in-flight entertainment, and meal quality.
Additionally, SriLankan Airlines has maintained its exceptional standing as a ‘Four Star Major Airline’ in the 2025 APEX Official Airline Ratings, marking an impressive eighth consecutive year in this category.
Maria Sathasivam, Manager of Product Development at SriLankan Airlines, expressed her pride in the award, stating:
“We are thrilled that our passengers have rated SriLankan Airlines as having the best inflight entertainment in this region.
We understand that a passenger’s overall inflight experience is influenced by many factors, and entertainment plays a pivotal role in improving satisfaction and making the journey more enjoyable.
We’ve carefully curated our content to reflect current trends and ensure our passengers are engaged throughout their flight.”
The airline’s in-flight entertainment (IFE) system offers a wide variety of Hollywood blockbusters, the latest releases, and an extensive selection of regional films, including popular titles from Sri Lanka and South Asia.
Passengers have access to a broad range of genres such as action, comedy, drama, adventure, animation, family-friendly content, musicals, sci-fi, and sports, all available in multiple languages.
The system also features over 100 audio albums, blending international hits with beloved local classics to cater to diverse musical tastes.
This latest accolade underscores SriLankan Airlines’ steadfast dedication to providing remarkable travel experiences. It is part of a growing list of achievements that highlight the airline’s focus on passenger satisfaction, including the 2022 Passenger Choice Awards for Best Cabin Service and Best Wi-Fi in Central/Southern Asia, the 2023 APEX Passenger Choice Awards for Best Food & Beverage and Best Seat Comfort, and the 2024 IFSA Award for Best Inflight Food or Beverage Innovation for its “SriLankan Flavours” menu.
