What Time Do You Land in Malé?

Your flight time decides which islands you reach on day one

Seaplanes only fly in daylight. Your flight time decides which islands you can reach on day one, and which ones cost you a night in a Male hotel before you have seen a lagoon.

Based on the transfer times we hold for each resort. We re-check yours against your actual ticket before quoting.

Why the clock matters

Seaplanes fly in daylight only, so every seaplane resort has a last landing time at Velana. Land after it and the first night is in Malé.

Speedboat resorts near the airport run at any hour. Domestic flights run to a timetable, so their cut-off sits later than the seaplane but earlier than the speedboat.
