I really need help!
We are going to fly to the Maldives in October. We want to do it ourselves without a travel agency. How much they read about everything and only now on the Agoda website they ran into the fact that you have to pay for hydroplanes and pay not cheap, sort of like .... Is this true? And how expensive is it? And is it possible to order booking.com on the same site such a service, immediately pay? Thank you all in advance!

They wanted to fly the same way for the new year. But it turns out to be more expensive than taking a tour (compared to specific hotels). And in booking it is written after the prices for the hotel how the transfer to the hotel island is paid and how much it will cost. Yes .. And not very cheap like that. did you want to fly there through the UAE?

Here we are, at first we decided to fly on a tour ... then we decided ourselves, but here it’s for you .. surprise))) They already wrote to us. What is better on a tour! Cheaper by a lot, BUT ,,, for hydro, pay anyway! this is not included:(... We were going through Abu Dhabi. Two transfers to Rostov)

You have to pay for a hydroplane. moreover, you need to pay for it, regardless of whether you are traveling on a tour or on your own - the cost of the transfer is automatically added to the cost of living and you cannot refuse it. price on average 100-130 US dollars per person (for a 20-30 minute flight)

Thank you for the answer! We already understood that the payment is made separately at least like this, at least like this .. Can you tell me, now I went to agoda, copied an example
Room information
Club Room Full Board (per night) RUB 6,358.01
Bed tax 10 night(s) (Adult x 2) (mandatory) RUB 5,104.00
Round trip seaplane transfer (Adult x 2) (mandatory) RUB 25,328.20
25328.20 is the amount for hydro ?? How can you understand what is included automatically?
And on Booking.com, nothing is written about hydro at all, it’s not clear whether it’s included in the price or not .. maybe someone knows, will tell you?

Specifically, to the Maldives it will be more expensive on its own.
When booking on booking.com ONLY what is written is included. If there is no mention of a hydroplane, then it is not included in the price.

Thank you very much!!!! It's a pity that it's more expensive:( So I'll have to tour ..............
аватар Malina.napa
on booking, the transfer is not included in the price (by the way, taxes are also not included). after booking, the hotel itself sends an invoice, in which everything is already taken into account (both taxes and transfer)
In your case, 395 US dollars for a transfer is of course a little expensive, although if you have chosen some very remote island from Male, it may be so.
Go directly to the hotel website and see their conditions and prices.

And by the way, you can ask any of your questions to the booking support service. The answer from them will definitely be more useful than the one that can be obtained here, since the conditions of the reservation are very different for countries and hotels.
Z.Y. An inexpensive option with the Maldives is to buy an organized tour to the Maldives ... in Sri Lanka.
If there is an inexpensive flight to Colombo from your city, you can try it.

Malina.napa No, we chose a hotel that is not expensive at all and is located near Male, we want to swim around the islands from this hotel, watch, and only spend the night here) Arena hotel, do you know how it is? Although yesterday my husband said that he did not want to so, it’s better to have one normal hotel and not roam anywhere :) And now I’m looking at everything on Booking, I’m studying) We’ve already booked there, but of course we’ve never encountered a hydro))
аватар ygarnaga
Pachok, yes, I think we'll do that if we write directly) Thank you!!
And at the expense of Colombo, they just found a great flight !!! One day, from Moscow through Colombo, and it turns out not at all expensive !!)
аватар Malina.napa
ygarnaga, it seems to me that this will cost more than a cast-iron bridge. all the more there is nothing special to see ... And the closer to Male, the worse the nature on the island and around it
аватар ygarnaga
Malina.napa, well, thank you for suggesting it!! But it seemed that everything was not so bad :)))) So, for sure, you need to take a tour and not invent then (
аватар Pachok
Look at the "exchange" section on the Russian "tourist house", there sometimes the Maldives specifically "burns out".
аватар ygarnaga
Exchange?? Is this how you need to type?
