Colombo/IBNS: SriLankan Airlines has adorned one of its aircraft with customised livery to reaffirm its status as the official airline of the much-awaited ‘Raid Amazones 2022'.

Raid Amazones 2022 is an annual sporting event that brings French female athletes ready to compete their way to victory in multiple sports events and activities against the backdrop of an iconic tourist destination.

Every year, the adventure travel event highlights an attractive tourist destination through inherent features such as its ecological beauty, citizens’ way of life and culture, which are showcased to the world through the presence of global media that follow the athletes in their trail.

The 20th edition of this event will take place in the areas surrounding the iconic Sigiriya rock fortress, rich in ecological beauty, cultural heritage and attributes of authentic village life in Sri Lanka.

The first leg of this sporting bout will take place from March 13 - 23 and the second leg is scheduled from March 27 – April 6.

Over 550 participants, including athletes and officials will be a part of this year edition.

The SriLankan aircraft with the special livery features iconic Sigiriya, the vibrant backdrop of this year’s event.

The specified aircraft will be deployed to bring in athletes and officials from Paris to Sri Lanka for the event and would also continue to fly to many of the airline’s other destinations in its scheduled operations, thus portraying Sri Lanka’s stature as a sports and adventure destination.
