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.

Discover Amman, the energetic capital of the ancient Hashemite Kingdom of Jordan. This vibrant cultural and economic powerhouse offers a truly fascinating blend of traditional heritage and modern, cosmopolitan development. You will find a city that embraces the 21st century while proudly celebrating its deep history, creating a distinctly welcoming atmosphere unlike any other in the region.

Dive into Amman's traditional side by visiting the iconic Citadel, the location of the city's ancient predecessor, Rabbath-Ammon. Perched on one of Amman’s highest hills, the Citadel is surrounded by a preserved wall and features the impressive Temple of Hercules and the beautiful Ummayad Palace. For a deeper understanding of Jordan's past and the context of its many monuments, spend time at the internationally renowned Jordan Museum, which houses countless artefacts dating back to the Bronze Age. The city’s rich history is vividly showcased at the magnificent Roman amphitheatre, a beautifully preserved monument from the Roman era. You can also appreciate the vibrant local art scene at Darat al Funun, an intimate gallery that highlights Amman’s contemporary creative culture.
