Maldives is an archipelago of 1,190 coral islands grouped further into 26 coral Atolls in the heart of Indian Ocean. It is a peaceful country with serenity and tranquility widespread from one corner to the other. The enigmatic gorgeousness of nature, crystal clear water and white sandy beaches cast a spell on their visitors in such a way that its feels like walking in a dream.
Although Holidays to Maldives are not as cheap as going to Thailand or Malaysia for a beach Holiday, yet the uniqueness and ultimate beauty that the country offers its tourists is worth the price. There are many chartered flights and scheduled flights that operate from London to Maldives on daily basis However the cheap flights to Male’ the capital of Maldives is accessible through travel agencies. Many travel agencies have contracts with accommodations, hotels, resorts and certain airline and therefore get very cheap fares or discounted all inclusive fares that are much cheaper in comparison to buying a flight and hotel separately. If you already have a hotel in Maldives and only looking for a cheap flight to Maldives from anywhere in UK, Heathrow, Manchester or Gatwick, the better idea is to reserve your flights at least 3 to 6 months prior to departure. The cheapest flight available is usually with Condor Fligen airline. It is an indirect flight that flies via Frankfurt and operates in cooperation with British Airways. The second option is to fly is with Transaero Airline that flies via Moscow Russia. Yet the best option is to fly with a good promotional fare of British Airways or BMI as they are the third least expensive airlines and also 5 stars rated in service quality. Another 5 star airline Qatar Airways that flies via Doha stands fourth in the race of cheapest flights to Maldives. But Qatar has been rated as the most popular and demanded airline. The best way to book these deals is to book with a contract holder as airlines do not sell most promotional fares directly.

Practically all visitors arrive at Malé International Airport located on Hulhulé Island right next to the capital Male. Aside from making the water bungalow rock on your honeymoon, the primary activity on the Maldives is scuba diving. The atolls are all coral reefs hundreds of kilometers away from any major landmass, meaning that water clarity is excellent and underwater life is abundant. Manta rays, sharks, even a few wrecks, you name it; you can find it in the Maldives. While diving is very good by world standards even in the immediate vicinity of Male, visibility and the chance of encountering large pelagics increases as you heed to the outer atolls.
All the resorts are self contained so they have at least one restaurant, which generally serve the type of cuisine expected by their guests. (i.e. modern European or generic Asian). Maldivian food revolves largely around fish (mas), in particular tuna (kandu mas), and Dishes are often hot, spicy and flavored with coconut, but use very few vegetables. It is recommended to look for an all inclusive hotel to save some money for your next holidays as many tourists say that “visiting Maldives once tells you what you were missing in your holidays, you already start planning your next holidays to Maldives while still there”.
