Travelling Maldives

Essential Information For Maldives

Seaplane Transfers in Maldives

Unlike speedboat transfers, seaplanes can only operate during daylight hours (06.00 to 16.00), which means if your international flight arrives later than 16.00 you will be transferred the following day.

The in-hold baggage allowance on seaplanes is 20 kg per person and the hand luggage allowance 5 kg per person. Excess baggage is charged at USD2-5 per kg (depending on the resort) by the seaplane company on check-in for your flight and this is compulsory due to safety reasons. Please check with individual resorts for more information.

Electricity and Sockets

Maldives' electricity supply is 230-240 volts, 50 Hz AC. Round-pin and square-pin plugs are both common.

“We had a great holiday. The quality of accommodation, the variety of local food, the friendliness of the people and the knowledge of our driver all surpassed our expectations. Well done to Tikalanka for arranging all of this. We would not hesitate to recommend you to our family and friends.”
