Yes, travelling to the Maldives by plane can be easy and fast if you take your flight from Sri Lanka or such a convenient destination. But, the real issue is with travelling around the country. As you must be aware, the Maldives is a collection of 1000 islands located separately, and going from one to another requires you to take the ferry, speed boat, dhoni, or seaplane. These methods have their pros and cons. But you need to remember that if you choose to travel around by seaplane that will cost you much more than the charge of the resort.
