Often forgotten

  • Checked baggage · About 9 hours of travel each way, airport time included

    Many long-haul fares include one bag; low-cost carriers price each bag separately. Check the fare rules.

  • Airport transfer · Arriving by air

    The local transport line budgets getting around, not a private transfer. Check whether your stay includes one.

  • Travel insurance · An international trip

    Medical cover abroad and trip cancellation. Priced by the insurer for your party and dates.

  • SIM or eSIM · An international trip

    Roaming or a local data plan for the days you are away.

  • Tips and service charges · Any trip

    Customs differ by country; restaurants and drivers may expect them.

  • Souvenirs and gifts · Any trip

    Outside the activities line, which budgets what you do, not what you bring home.

About Maldives

A chain of low coral atolls in the Indian Ocean where the trip is built around one resort island or a local island guesthouse, and meal plans often fold food into a single figure. Reaching your island is a separate, separately charged leg after landing at Male: speedboat for nearer resorts, seaplane or a domestic flight for distant ones, and seaplanes operate in daylight only. Driest around December to April.
