Best time to fly from Colombo to Sharjah

November to March is the pleasant season; summer is hot and humid, and the Sharjah-Dubai roads are among the slowest in the country on weekday mornings and evenings. On the flight from Colombo to Sharjah, seasons show in fares more than in schedules: holiday departures fill first, so we recommend booking early for summer, Christmas, New Year, Eid and Easter journeys.

Return flight from Sharjah to Colombo

We book the return leg from Sharjah to Colombo just as easily, typically on the same ticket. Booking both directions together lets us compare a return fare against two singles - on some airlines the return is much cheaper, on others two one-ways with different carriers win. Tell us the day you want to come back on the form and we send both directions with the cost.

How much is a flight from Colombo to Sharjah?

The cost of a flight from Colombo to Sharjah depends on the date, the time of day, the airline, the fare class and how far ahead you book. Airlines sell seats in tiers that rise as the plane fills, so the same seat can cost several times more on a holiday weekend than on a quiet Tuesday. That is why Haqqi Tours does not print a price on this page: we verify the live fares for your exact date across every airline on the route and send you the real cost by WhatsApp, with the options side by side.

What the price we send includes: the ticket in the fare class you chose, the taxes and airport charges, the baggage that fare carries, and our service - comparing the airlines, booking, sending the electronic ticket and helping if the flight changes. We tell you clearly if a bag or a seat costs extra on that fare.

Cheapest flight from Colombo to Sharjah: how to pay less

Finding cheap flights from Colombo to Sharjah is timing plus flexibility. Here is how Haqqi Tours finds the lowest fare on the route:

• Consider early-morning and late-evening departures, which frequently carry the lowest fares
• Let us know if your dates are flexible - moving by a day can change the fare a lot
• Pack to the fare: a hand-luggage-only ticket is cheaper if you do not need a checked bag
• Compare airlines - on this route the cheapest carrier changes from day to day
• Book both directions together when a return fare is cheaper than two singles, which we look up
• Ask about infant and child fares and about group bookings for four or more

We answer "what is the cheapest way to fly from Colombo to Sharjah?" many times a day; the answer for the date you travel comes back on WhatsApp with the booking ready to confirm.

Airlines flying from Colombo to Sharjah

On the flight from Colombo to Sharjah you can choose between Air Arabia. A full-service airline generally includes a checked bag, a meal and a flexible ticket; a low-cost fare is cheaper at the start and adds those items one by one. We provide both and tell you the total for the way you actually travel.

Departure: Bandaranaike International Airport, Colombo (Katunayake) (CMB)

Your journey starts at Bandaranaike International Airport, Colombo (Katunayake) (CMB). We tell you the terminal for your airline, when check-in and bag drop close, and whether the airport has fast-track security worth booking. The Colombo-Katunayake Expressway links the airport with the city in about 20 to 30 minutes without traffic, but there is no rail link to the terminal, buses are slow with luggage, and taxi apps vary in fare; a private car with a driver is the simplest way to reach hotels, Negombo, Kandy or the south coast.

• Online check-in opens 24-48 hours before; we send the link and the booking reference
• Keep the passport or ID used for booking with the e-ticket - names must match exactly
• Check the baggage included in your fare - we tell you before you book
• Haqqi Tours can provide a private transfer from your hotel in Colombo to Bandaranaike International Airport, Colombo (Katunayake)

Arrival: Sharjah International Airport (SHJ) and getting into Sharjah

The flight lands at Sharjah International Airport (SHJ). Sharjah is the cultural capital of the UAE, directly north of Dubai on the same coast, with Sharjah International Airport (SHJ) about 13 km from the city centre and Dubai International only 20 km away, its restored heart of souks and museums set around Al Majaz waterfront and the Khalid Lagoon. From arrivals you have taxis, public transport and, if you book it with us, a Haqqi Tours driver waiting with your name. For a family with bags, a pre-booked airport transfer is the easiest way to finish the Colombo to Sharjah journey: fixed price, flight tracked, straight to the hotel door.

Arriving late at night? We note it and, if you have booked a transfer, the driver tracks the flight; a delay costs you nothing.

Baggage, seats and classes on the Colombo to Sharjah flight

Baggage is the item that most often changes the real cost of a flight from Colombo to Sharjah. Full-service fares normally include a checked bag and a cabin bag; low-cost fares start with a small cabin bag and add the rest. We tell you the allowance of the fare we send, and whether adding a suitcase at booking is cheaper than at the airport (it almost always is). Seats can be selected on most airlines for a fee or free at check-in; in economy and business the differences are space, meals and flexibility.

• Seat selection free or paid depending on the carrier; families seated together on request
• Infants under two travel on a lap at a reduced fare; children have their own seat and fare
• Meals included on full-service airlines; special meals ordered in advance on request
• Business class: bigger seat, meal, lounge, priority boarding - we send the cost beside economy

Flying with children, families and groups from Colombo to Sharjah

Travelling with children? Put the ages on the form: infants and children have different fares and different baggage allowances, and we apply both. Groups - a company, a school, a wedding party - are booked together so everyone sits in the same section and one confirmation covers the whole party. Haqqi Tours also provides the minivans and Sprinters that carry a group between the airport and the hotel at both ends.

Things to do in Sharjah when you land

Sharjah is the cultural capital of the UAE, directly north of Dubai on the same coast, with Sharjah International Airport (SHJ) about 13 km from the city centre and Dubai International only 20 km away, its restored heart of souks and museums set around Al Majaz waterfront and the Khalid Lagoon. Start with Sharjah Art Foundation and the Heart of Sharjah, Al Qasba and the Eye of the Emirates and Rain Room, then Mleiha archaeological desert and Sharjah Museum of Islamic Civilization. A tip from our desk: Many guests fly into Sharjah for Dubai hotels or the reverse - tell us both the airport and the emirate of your hotel so the fixed price is right the first time.

We offer tours and transfers in Sharjah as well as the flight ticket - one conversation, one plan for the whole trip.
