Maldivian is proud to announce the launch of a brand-new direct route between Hanimaadhoo and Bangalore, starting 15th May 2025. This much-anticipated connection brings greater convenience and accessibility for those living in the northern atolls, offering a faster, more affordable way to reach one of the region’s most popular destinations. 

With return fares starting at just USD 299 for locals, this new service provides easy access to Bangalore’s world class medical care facilities, vibrant shopping districts, business centres, and rich culture. For years, Maldivians have travelled to Bangalore for everything from health care to higher education and now, with direct flights from Hanimaadhoo, this journey is more convenient than ever. 

This new route is especially significant for residents in the north, who previously had to travel via Male’ or other transit points to reach Bangalore. By removing the need for domestic connections, this service saves time, reduces travel hassle, and enhances overall accessibility for families, students, and patients alike. 

Tickets for the new route are now available and be booked through Maldivian website (www.maldivian.aero), mobile app, or any of the airline’s approved sales channels. 

This launch marks a major step forward in improving regional connectivity and ensuring that more Maldivians can travel comfortably, affordably, and directly.
