With reference to the recent news reports on a damaged meal tray onboard a SriLankan Airlines flight, the Airline yesterday clarified and placed on record that there were no defects reported prior to departure of the flight, and this incident occurred during the journey. The footage that is being aired clearly shows the meal tray getting detached when the passenger attempts to pull it down.
SriLankan Airlines regrets the inconvenience experienced by the passenger onboard. Further, the Airline ensures that all steps will be taken to avoid recurrence of such incidents.
