Your journey begins at Velana International Airport (MLE), the gateway to the Maldives and a remarkably beautiful departure point surrounded by brilliant blue water. Enjoy a comfortable travel experience at this easy-to-navigate international hub.

Getting to the airport involves travelling on water since it's located on its own island, without land connections to Malé city. Speedboats are the most common mode of transport, alongside local water taxis known as dhonis, which bring you directly to the terminal. You can also take a transfer by seaplane.

Once inside the terminal, you'll find several facilities to explore before your flight. You can relax in the lounge area or browse retail outlets for any last-minute purchases. Shop local goods, luxury accessories, perfume and jewellery. Stay connected using the complimentary internet kiosks situated in the duty-free area, near gates 1, 2 and 3. You can easily find the prayer room inside the terminal, or access one of the two mosques just five minutes’ walk from the airport.

Lagos is a bustling metropolitan area, the commercial and cultural heart of Nigeria, which captivatingly blends its rich history with rapid, ultra-modern development. As one of the world's fastest-growing megacities, it serves as a major African financial and technological hub. You can immerse yourself in the city's thriving arts scene at the renowned Nike Art Gallery, which showcases an extensive collection of Nigerian artwork, from paintings to textiles. Alternatively, discover Nigeria's history and cultural artefacts at the National Museum Lagos. For a peaceful contrast to the urban energy, you can escape to the Lekki Conservation Centre. Here, you can walk the longest canopy walkway in Africa, offering you a breathtaking view of the park's wildlife and natural scenery.
