Get on board for a unique and enthralling flying experience on your vacation to the Maldives! Immerse yourself in spectacular bird’s eye view of the pristine blue waters and white sand beach islands of the archipelago of Maldives on your way to your resort.
Overview
The Maldives, being an archipelago of islands is one of the best tourist destinations in the world. The country is comprised of a collection of islands and various transportation methods are used to travel from one island to the other. Among them, transportation by seaplanes is the most convenient and quickest way to travel from one place to the other in the Maldives.
Pros
As mentioned earlier this is one of the fastest modes to travel between the Maldives resorts and other inhabited islands. Apart from this, seaplane transfer offers you a chance to indulge in spectacular aerial views of Maldivian atolls and islands. Unlike other flight travels, the landing and taking off process is smooth and you will not even feel the stress while you touch down the water.
Cons
The major disadvantage of seaplane travel in the Maldives is you cannot carry more luggages. Unlike other commercial aeroplanes, seaplanes are much smaller and the room you get is very confined this restricts the amount of luggage you are allowed to carry during your travel and the other disadvantage is they cost far more than any other transportation methods in the Maldives.
Booking a seaplane transfer
Most resorts in the Maldives like the Anantara Kihavah Maldives Villas offer seaplane transfers and the fare charges are included in your final invoice but if your resort does not provide this facility, you can book seaplane transfers online or by contacting the company directly.
