It can be tricky to find the right Maldives flight if you haven’t book a holiday package that comes with flights and accommodation.
But don’t despair, whether you want a scheduled flight or a budget one, with or without a stop over you can be sure to find the flight to the Maldives that suits you and your budget.
Although the Maldives is becoming more and more popular as vacation destination it still doesn’t attract millions of holiday-makers each year. In fact, official figures shows there were less than 750,000 tourists the Maldives in 2007.
“What does this mean?” I hear you ask; well it means that apart from Europe and Asia, a trip to the Maldives will mean connecting flights.
Flights to Maldives – Scheduled Airlines
There are a host of scheduled flights each week to the Maldives from across the globe. Scheduled flights are a bit like your well known airline, like LTU International Airways from Germany or Sri Lankan Airlines from… you guessed it, Sri Lanka.
These guys are the big guns and tend to focus on really popular business and holiday destinations so you won’t always find your country’s major airline heading towards Malé… but worry not, there are plenty of airlines that do.
To help, we've put together a list of the scheduled airlines that fly to the Maldives... So if you can't fly from the country you're in, then perhaps you can fly to a country that has scheduled
or chartered flights to the Maldives.
Oh and where there's more than one flight route, each route starts on a separate line.
* These airlines also provide other flights to the Maldives that have different stop overs or different airline carriers.
All the information above is correct at the time of writing and should be used as a guide only. Always, always check with your travel agent or airline operator which routes they're currently using as Maldives flight routes (much like every other flight route) change frequently.
And if (like us) you aren't sure which aiports the codes refer to, then we've found a site that loves to tell us all
what those three little letters mean!
