A9 is not yet open to civilian traffic as de-mining is still going on. dailymirror.lk/DM_BLOG/Secti...

According to today's article in Daily Mirror the fare is LKR 22,000, but maybe going to be reduced in the coming days. dailymirror.lk/DM_BLOG/Secti... Expo Air and Lionair have been operating the route, but I believe that Lionair seized operations a couple of years ago, and Expo Air's website (http://www.expoavi.com/) does not give much information.
