The Maldives looking at the possibility of direct flight to Seychelles – Bridging gaps for a fruitful future

At a diplomatic discussion held recently, it was discussed to strengthen the relationships that the Maldives has with Seychelles. Both these nations are highly dependent on fishing and tourism industries, and strategies to develop these industries also have been discussed at this meeting.

According to what was discussed, there is a clear need to launch a direct flight between the two destinations. Through this initiative, both the countries will have a new tourist market, and travellers from Seychelles will get the chance to explore the Maldives while staying at a private pool villa Maldives has to offer at resort properties the likes of Anantara Kihavah Maldives Villas. In addition to this initiative, many other matters were discussed including ways to protect the marine life in the Indian Ocean and to improve the lifestyles of the fishing community of both destinations.
