Confused about what to do after 12th in Colombo? Explore 5 high-paying careers in aviation and hospitality with starting salaries from ₹15,000-₹50,000/month. No entrance exam required — any stream welcome.
Every year, lakhs of students in Colombo and across Sri Lanka complete their 12th board exams and face the daunting question: “What next?” While traditional paths like engineering and medicine remain popular, they require expensive entrance exams, intense competition, and 4-5 years of study before you can start earning. Aviation and hospitality careers offer a smarter, faster alternative — with comparable or higher salaries, global travel opportunities, and a glamorous work environment.
India's aviation sector is the fastest-growing in the world, with domestic air passenger traffic crossing 15 crore annually. The hospitality industry is projected to reach $33 billion by 2028. This explosive growth translates directly into job opportunities — airlines, airports, hotels, and travel companies are constantly hiring trained professionals. For students from Colombo, Wings Institute provides a direct pathway into this booming industry.
The best part? You don't need a science background. Whether you studied Arts, Commerce, or Science in 12th, all five career paths below are open to you. No entrance exam, no donation, no years of waiting — just focused professional training and a career that starts in months, not years.
