Maldivian has launched the first-ever nonstop air service between the Maldives and Australia, with its inaugural Airbus A330 flight departing Malé for Melbourne on the night of 17 May. The weekly service, operated with travel company Luxury Escapes, follows a Bilateral Air Services Agreement signed in March this year and is expected to strengthen tourism, trade and connectivity.
