Itinerary
How To Get There
International travellers will need to fly into Velana International Airport (MLE) as it's the only airport in the Maldives that receives international flights from multiple destinations.
Most carriers offer direct flights to Velana International Airport, although bear in mind that schedules may change during peak season. Be aware that most flights will arrive late at night, usually 9 PM onwards.
Our Staff will meet you on arrival with a Princess Ulua signage. They will then take you to the boat, around 30 minutes.
The first night on board is usually spent near Male, the general briefing will be done, a nice dinner will be served, your dream trip is ready to begin.
Next day when you wake up, you will be in one of the many paradisiac spots in the Maldives.
So, just get ready and jump in the water and immerse yourself in the big blue!
Let our team know if you need assistance in flight bookings and/or accommodation, we are here to help before, during and even after you trip!
