Travel support when you need it

Sri Lanka combines international business and tourism with travel across diverse environments, from Colombo and other major urban centres to coastal areas, the central highlands and more remote parts of the country. For travellers, the need for assistance can change quickly. A medical problem, travel disruption, local security issue or unexpected change to an itinerary can become considerably more difficult when you are unfamiliar with the local environment.

Global Traveller provides a single point of contact for practical assistance before and during your journey.

Business Travel Assistance in Sri Lanka

Sri Lanka is an established destination for international tourism and business travel, with Colombo serving as an important commercial centre and travellers moving throughout the country for meetings, projects, site visits and longer assignments. Sri Lanka Tourism specifically provides guidance and resources for business travellers. (Sri Lanka Travel)

Global Traveller gives organisations a single assistance resource for their people while they are travelling internationally. Whether an employee is attending meetings in Colombo, visiting a client, travelling between regional locations or working on a longer-term project, members can access 24/7 assistance throughout the journey.

This can be particularly relevant to organisations involved in:

Engineering & Infrastructure
Support for personnel travelling to project locations and regional sites.

Agriculture & Agribusiness
Assistance for teams and executives travelling between commercial and rural locations.

Tourism & Hospitality
Support for management, executives and personnel travelling throughout the country.

Professional Services
Assistance for consultants, executives and employees visiting clients and business locations.

Corporate & Executive Travel
Additional support for senior personnel and business travellers with more complex itineraries.

Medical Assistance & Evacuation

Access to appropriate medical support can become more important when travelling outside major population centres. Global Traveller provides 24/7 coordination when a member becomes ill or injured, helping connect the traveller with appropriate local medical services and coordinating the next steps.

Depending on the circumstances, assistance may include:

  • Medical referrals

  • Hospital and clinic coordination

  • Ambulance arrangements

  • Medical case management

  • Communication with family or an employer

  • Medical evacuation

  • Repatriation coordination

Sri Lanka has national emergency medical services, but official guidance notes that healthcare provision and emergency response can vary by location, making access to appropriate support particularly important for travellers outside major centres. (Sri Lanka Travel)

Travel Security & Executive Support

Most journeys do not require specialist protective support. Some do. For executives, senior personnel and families travelling in Sri Lanka, Global Traveller can coordinate additional assistance where the circumstances, itinerary or traveller profile require it.

This may include:

  • Journey and movement planning

  • Secure transportation

  • Local operational coordination

  • Support for complex or remote movements

  • Protective arrangements

  • Assistance during changing security conditions

24/7 Emergency Assistance

When something unexpected happens overseas, knowing who to contact can make a significant difference.

Global Traveller provides a 24/7 human assistance service for members who need practical support.

This can include assistance following:

Medical emergencies
Illness, injury or hospitalisation.

Security incidents
A developing situation affecting the traveller or their immediate surroundings.

Travel disruption
Unexpected disruption affecting flights, transportation or onward travel.

Complex movements
Situations requiring additional transportation, local coordination or onward movement.

The Global Traveller app gives members access to destination information, travel intelligence, location alerts, itinerary support and direct communication with the assistance team.
