Manta Air announces continuation of seaplane operations for local transfers amid scaling down of its services


Maldives
PUBLISHED March 30, 2020

Manta Air has confirmed to continue its flights for the local community with its Seaplane service, effective from 01 April 2020 to both Dhaalu and Baa Atoll.

With continued requests from the local community for the Manta service, continuation of daily flights have been decided to maintain regular domestic transfer connectivity in these atolls and also for emergency flights.

Given the drastic decline in travel resulting from the COVID-19 pandemic and foreseeable financial impact, today, the airline has made a difficult yet pragmatic business decision to temporarily suspend all fixed scheduled ATR services to Dhaalu Airport and Dharavandhoo Airport from 01 April 2020 until the current situation in the Maldives improves.


All customers who wish to travel with Manta during this period may book tickets via Manta Airs official website www.mantaair.mv/book or through its reservations team. The domestic carrier will continue to support the on-demand charter flight requirements for both ATR and twin-otters should there be a specific requirement from its partners at any time during this period.

The customers are strongly advised to travel only when necessary, avoid any unwanted travel and to follow health regulatory guidelines accordingly.

Manta Air has previously announced immediate temporary route suspension of GKK on 16 March, in addition to scaling down its operations and schedule changes in light of the rapidly growing global COVID 19 pandemic.
