Chennai To Maldives Distance

  • Chennai to Maldives

    By Air

    3.0 hours

Known for sparkling blue lagoons, exotic beaches and a great tropical experience by the Indian Ocean, Maldives is one of the most visited destinations from India for tourism. The best way to reach from Chennai to Maldives is definitely by flight.

Velana International Airport and Gan International Airport are the two which receive the most number of international flights. Located on Hulhule Island, the airport has its own ferries every ten minutes to take the passengers across to the main Male Island for 1 USD.

Here is how one can travel the Chennai to Maldives distance by air, land and sea.

By Air: There are 3 Chennai to Maldives flight every week, which are operated by Maldivian Airlines and takes 2 hours 10 minutes only. The flight leaves on Sundays, Wednesdays and Fridays. There are multiple other carriers as well, with connecting routes like SpiceJet and Sri Lankan Airlines. But they increase the Chennai to Maldives flight time to over 4 hours.

By Road/Rail: There is no possibility of a road or railway connectivity between Chennai and Maldives. The distance on Chennai to Maldives map shows a huge 1344km, and a majority of it is stretch of Indian Ocean.

 

By Sea: While most people simply prefer to fly for fast commute, those seeking a more luxurious trip can go with the royal cruisers. There is no cruise route from Chennai itself, but Kochi and Mumbai have regular luxury liners leaving for Male, for an exciting week out in the ocean.

Bhavana's 5 days trip to Maldives

Our experience with travel triangle contact Naushad was very bad to say the least. Once the initial payment was complete, he was totally non responsive and unbelievably rude. Every single message on WhatsApp needed multiple followups for response. Very rarely call was picked up and answered on the first attempt. He was not only rude to me but to all the fellow ladies who were travelling with me. He even went to the extent of rudely asking if it was the first time we were travelling abroad. I am an IT professional travelling abroad to UK, US etc multiple times for work. I have travelled to places like Italy and Thailand through travel agents for vacation. I have never ever had such a bad experience. The worst experience was the itinerary said all the entry tickets were covered only to realise that we had to pay for every single place in srilanka. When asked we were told it was a typo and had to be considered under exclusion. But once we reached srilanka, our guide Sameer changed the whole perspective for us. He was not only very respectful, but also patient throughout our 6 day trip. He showed us all the important places and took photos. Driver was very good and capable and we were very happy with our experience in srilanka. No

Deepesh's 5 days trip to Maldives

Research, take your time, read reviews and decide. Do not worry if the chosen resort has last room as claimed by agent, you will have many other option even 7 days before and you might get room in same as well. Choose natural islands over man made ones. We chose resort which was built over deserted island and was very hot. Get into water only if you are sure about the depth and you are swimmer. Compare quotes with other travel agents and chose. Agents don't have much to do while booking for Maldives, they can only help you do the booking. Apart from that maldives experience is world famous. We also had good experience.
