Top tips for finding a cheap flight out of India

  • The Maldives is an archipelagic state that has 185 inhabited islands. Depending on which one you plan to visit, you will need to plan your trip accordingly. For example, you can fly to either Male Airport (MLE), which is the capital city, or Addu City Airport (GAN) from Mumbai Airport (BOM). Flying to Male tends to be quicker and will also give you access to other islands via boat, so this could be a good option for you.
  • Indian citizens that are visiting the Maldives must ensure that their passport has at least six months remaining on it to enter the country. You must also have a confirmed return ticket and proof of accommodation on the islands. As for a visa, you will not need to get one before you arrive. You will be granted a 30-day single-entry visa for the purposes of tourism or business upon arrival.
  • No matter which airport you choose to land at, whether it's Male Airport or Addu City Airport, you will have access to great beaches almost immediately. From Male Airport, for instance, you can get to Hulhumale Public Beach in about 13min by car. Whereas from Addu City, you can reach Gauken’di Beach in around 17min by car. However, if you want to access beaches on other islands, then you should travel to Male, where you can get a boat to various locations. 
  • After landing at Male Airport (MLE), you can reach other islands in the archipelago with ease. Just follow signs to the Sea Plane Terminal at the airport, where you can continue your journey to the island resort you’re heading to.
  • If you are booking flights to the Maldives during Ramadan, it is likely that ticket prices will be more expensive as a result of the religious festival. With all the country’s citizens being Muslim, it is a very important celebration on the island. Unless you are visiting for this purpose, it’s recommended you book either side of the festival for better ticket prices.
