Tourists booking flights to Maldives can expect tropical island resorts and blue lagoons that stretch for miles. Those travellers booking flights to Maldives for a stay in paradise won’t be disappointed. The Maldives is made up of 1,190 coral islands and is a haven for scuba divers and snorkellers wanting to explore marine life. That means no self-guided tours or independent travel once you leave your Maldives flight.

The Maldives is predominately Muslim and holds Islam values sacred. Tourists heading to the region should familiarize themselves with proper etiquette on the flight to Maldives. For example, alcohol is prohibited on many islands and proper dress (usually long pants and shirts) are required on island tours. Television broadcasts stop five times a day so Muslims can pray and under no circumstances are travellers allowed to bring symbols of other religions into the country. Fish and rice are the staple foods, but Maldivians eat meat and chicken on special occasions. If you’re staying on a resort island, you’re likely to find plenty of cross-cultural food and drink. Travellers booking flights to Maldives should know that alcohol is only available in tourist resorts, and most of the food served at these Maldives resorts is imported.

Still, a trip to the Maldives is worth the experience. Book Maldives flights and resort accommodations and spend a little time in a far away paradise.

When to fly to Maldives

Peak season:

Book your flight to Maldives during the period of December to April, and you’ll be welcomed with a few more hours of sunshine a day, as well as access to peak resorts, making holiday getaways a necessity.

Off season:

If you plan on spending most of your stay under water, you might want to plan your flight to Maldives during the damp months of June and July for a cheaper rate. High humidity, rain, and cloudy skies offset the sunshine, but cheap flights to the Maldives are commonly available. Although monsoons affect the weather, you can’t go wrong with the influx of underwater activities.

Getting around Maldives

Although independent travel in Maldives is sometimes discouraged because tourism is strictly regulated, you can acquire an Inter Atoll Travel Permit in order to visit the surrounding islands. But keep in mind, it’s easiest to attain a permit if you are sponsored by a resident. For more inter-island Maldives flights, use Trans Maldivian Airways and Maldivian Air Taxi (PTE) Ltd. Helicopters and sea planes help get tourists to and from popular resorts, but the most common form of transportation is called a dhoni, a diesel engine vehicle used for longer trips. On land, taxis, motorcycles, and bicycles are available to just about every determined adventurer.
