Frequently asked questions

Is it cheaper to buy a plane ticket from Bandaranaike Intl. Airport (CMB) to SDK last minute?
Booking your trip from CMB to Sandakan Airport last minute could save you cash if you happen to find an awesome deal. However, airfares usually don't get cheaper closer to the departure date. If you take a wait-and-see approach, flights could also be booked up or the best seats taken (don't get stuck in the middle!). If you'd rather play it safe, book well ahead of your departure date. In fact, some of the best deals are available on Expedia up to a year in advance. If your preferred airline hasn't released its airfares yet, check back regularly as offers are updated on Expedia all the time.

From Colombo, you can get to Sandakan via Sandakan Airport (SDK), Pamol (PAY) and Tomanggong (TMG). Do some research into which terminal is the best option for you before you make a decision.
