Maldives is expecting to introduce direct flights to South Africa from the one of the international airports located in the southern atoll of Maldives ;Addu International Airport (AIA). This was announced by the Managing Director of AIA, Mohamed Latheef during a media briefing. During the event he also added that a number of tour operators had already flown in for the discussions to commence operations within this year. Entrepreneurs believe that this is good economic decision by Maldives which will bring in more visitors to Maldives resorts the likes of Anantara Kihavah Maldives Villas.
