Maldives to open five new airports
The Maldives' Minister of Tourism & Civil Aviation has revealed that five new airports will be built on reclaimed lagoons across the North and South atolls taking the Maldives' total hub count to seven.
Mahamood Shougee said that Emirates Airline, which already flies to the capital, Mahe, was considering flying to the new hub in the south and that charter airlines from Europe were already scheduling flights to the new airports.
Each of the new airports will be built in conjunction with at least one resort as the Maldives gears up to introduce more mid-range properties to its portfolio of products.
