This is one of the few reviews from Velana International Airport (Male, Maldives). Pardon the redundancy however I just wanted to write this trip report.
Left the island paradise and took a 30 minute seaplane flight to Male Airport.
Was just in time for check - in and here are the captures of the check - in hall.
Yes, I always fly Economy. :)
Passed through Immigrations and was looking for coffee.
How the gate looked like.
Some outside views. There were not many flights during that time.
Some charging stations as well as money exchange counter.
Our gate that time.
Some more views outside.
Boarding was on time; flight was about 80% full so boarding process was smooth.
Here I was admiring a QR plane.
Legroom, reading materials…
Finally, took off!
Honestly, I was very hungry and settled for this delicious spicy ground chicken with rice.
Cabin shot….
Lav shots.
And some more random shots….
After 4 hours & 15 minutes, landed….
That's all friends. Thank you.
Hi Manuel! How you doing??
That black and white photograph of the pilots in short pants and barefoot pushing the throttle is an EXCELLENT shot! At first I thought you took it from the National Geographic magazine or something like that!
Give me five! We're "brothers in Y". XD
I wonder how a frappé can be inspirational. :O
Velana looks like a nice airport. Plants are a nice touch.
Rather quiet for the main airport of such a popular destination!! :O
I heard about that bank and former president Yameen in the news recently!!
I'm not really a fan of ribbon-abusing liveries, but Bangkok Airways' looks really interesting! The ugliest? Malaysia Airlines. Have you seen it? I don't know if those are ribbons or horns! XD
Looks fantastic! Is that metal cutlery? Wow!
BKK looks creepy at night!!
Thanks a lor for sharing, Manuel! What about a report on one of those seaplane flights??
