The national airline, Maldivian, has resumed flights to Dhaka, Bangladesh, after temporarily halting operations due to unrest following protests against the former Bangladeshi government.
Although flights to Dhaka have resumed, Maldivian has reduced the number of scheduled flights. Previously, the airline operated two flights per week to Dhaka, but it now offers just one weekly flight.
Bangladesh is one of the few international destinations served by Maldivian. In addition to Dhaka, the airline currently operates international flights to Trivandrum, Cochin, and Bangalore. Maldivian is also working to acquire a wide-body aircraft to expand its range of destinations.
