How much does it cost to travel to the Maldives?

Q: How much does it cost to travel to the Maldives?

Total cost = transportation + accommodation + catering + attractions and entertainment

1: Transportation costs

< p>How to save money on transportation to the Maldives?

Direct flights from China to the Maldives mainly depart from Chengdu, Beijing, Kunming, Guangzhou, Hong Kong, and Shanghai.

Airlines include Mega, Hainan Airlines, Sichuan Airlines, China Southern Airlines, China Eastern Airlines, etc.

Air ticket prices fluctuate greatly depending on tourism holidays and peak seasons. But some institutions will get special tickets!

The price in the off-season is generally 4,000-6,000 yuan/person

The price in the peak tourist season is 6,000-7,000 yuan/person

These Air ticket prices are relatively transparent, market pricing is consistent, and the cost is relatively high!

Many tourists have no idea how much it will cost to go to the Maldives for the first time. They just buy the tickets from the airline and book them at a high price when they arrive. I checked into a hotel, but I didn’t enjoy any discount at all!

So, when buying tickets from an agency, is the discount huge?

The discounts offered by institutional charter companies are still relatively large.

These charter operators are generally affiliated with travel agencies. To put it simply, it is a relatively powerful travel agency that charters a plane to the Maldives all year round. This way the cost is much lower.

The editor has seen many customers who choose to travel and go to the island customer service "Susu" one month in advance to get discount tickets.

I remember one time, a customer from Zhengzhou bought a direct flight from Kunming to the Maldives for 2,100 yuan per person, including tax. It also includes air tickets from Zhengzhou to Kunming.

Check the price of this set of tickets online. It costs 3,850 yuan for a round trip. The price we arranged is only 2,420 yuan. One person saved 1,420 yuan, and the two of them saved nearly 3,000 yuan. On the return trip, the client from Zhengzhou took the 3,000 yuan saved and bought a watch for her husband to wear back home.

Look, this is the benchmark for rational consumption! How great! If you think this is an advertisement, or a reference standard.

But in the end it was the tourists who got the tickets at a lower price. Once you get the benefits, what else is important?

Maldives’ airlines connecting abroad include Singapore Airlines, Qatar Airways, Sri Lankan Airlines, and Malaysia Airlines. When transferring via overseas airlines, you need to stay at the transfer airport for a period of time, which can save most of the time.

Two: Hotel expenses

How much does it cost to stay in a hotel in the Maldives? Is there honeymoon service?

1,000 yuan/person/day in the off-season

In peak season (holidays) the price increases by about 2,000 yuan/person/day.

The Maldives is "one island, one hotel" with many room types. You can also book through travel agency channels.

Regardless of the level of the hotel, the room types are divided into two categories: beach houses and water houses. Each category is also divided into regular and superior rooms.

Relatively speaking: beach houses are more affordable, while water houses are more expensive. The price difference is $100 per night.

According to our travel plan, we will choose a 2-night water house or 2-night sand house for about 1,000, both with independent swimming pools for use. This combination is the most cost-effective. You can experience two different room types and save a lot of money.

Generally speaking, May to October is the off-season, with the cheapest prices throughout the year being in May, June, July, and September. November to January is the peak season, and the most expensive time of the year. The segments are December, January and February. Off-season prices are 20%~30% lower than peak season prices

3: Cost of dining in the Maldives

Is it expensive to eat in the Maldives? How much does a meal cost?

< p>When dining in Maldives restaurants and participating in various day tours, you must pay a 10% service fee + 8% business tax on the basis of the price.

For example, if you eat at a restaurant and order a dish worth $100 on the menu, a 10% service fee + 12% sales tax will be added to the bill when you check out, making the total total $122.

And almost every meal costs about 100 US dollars, which is quite a lot after all.

So, eating in the Maldives is still quite expensive.

Then we strongly recommend choosing a hotel with AI (all-inclusive) or FB (full board). Facts have proved that it is really very cost-effective.

Because I had to go diving every day, I came back so hungry that my chest was pressed against my back. I saw that my companions did not include meals and could only eat instant noodles in the hotel.

It would be great to have a buffet at this time. The restaurants are all self-service and there are free drinks.

The Maldives AI (all-inclusive) or FB (full meal) itinerary can be obtained after adding Susu, the island customer service. Get contact information here

Are there any other expenses?

Others are some travel equipment that you need to prepare, as well as phone cards or WiFi rental fees.

WiFi can be rented in advance directly at "Choose a Travel". It is half the price of temporarily renting WiFi at the airport. It can be picked up and returned at airports nationwide, which is quite convenient!

Of course, tipping is indispensable in the Maldives. Every time you enjoy the help and services provided by Xiaohei, you will give an appropriate tip to express your affirmation of their service. Just give 1 US dollar or 2 US dollars each time. The entire Maldives trip , you need to prepare a tip of about $50.

After reading the above tips on how to save money in the Maldives, have you made a clear budget?

I know that some tourists who don’t like to worry will just do whatever they want. So I bought the route on the travel platform

But I have to be reminded that purchasing the route on the platform is not only expensive, but the customer service can't keep up, and the experience is not very good.

Everyone just needs to remember two points:

The platform charges a handling fee. Therefore, in terms of price, it will not be very favorable!

The platforms are just regular travel agencies, and they are still routes arranged by travel agencies. There is essentially no difference, and there is an additional middleman!
