Comments
***Mandatory domestic flight transfer from Male Int'l Airport to
Gan Int'l Airport (including Speedboat Transfer to the resort) is
provided by the hotel with charges. Please advise flight details in
advance. The Shangri-La hospitality envelops guests as they
disembark from international flight at Male airport. Guests are
then escorted by the Shangri-La host into the relaxing domestic
airport lounge before taking the connecting flight to Addu Atoll.
As air-conditioned domestic flights from Male to Gan Airport
operate round the clock, guests no longer need to waste their
vacation time due to the limited operation of seaplanes, which are
required to access other resorts. The resort is just an
eight-minute boat ride away from Gan, and is also accessible by
private jet which can land at the newest Gan International
Airport.
