Seat-in-coach transfers
You can opt for this service at the time of booking your Emirates Holidays package for transportation between the airport and your hotel. This service is provided at most of our Emirates Holidays destinations and is on a shared basis with other Emirates Holidays passengers. The vehicle may range from a minibus to a large coach depending on the number of passengers and may operate at fixed timings.
Private transfers
Private transfers operate according to individual customer requirements where an entire vehicle can be booked by a passenger to transfer them to their specified destination. Vehicles may be any type and size, depending on the number of people as well as an option to choose the vehicle they require. Private transfers offer the services of a professional driver who will greet you on arrival and escort you to your booked vehicle. These transfer services are available 24 hours a day, 7 days a week to ensure seamless holiday.
Speed Boat Transfers
In Maldives where many of the resorts are located on small islands, Speedboats are the mode of transportation to your resorts. Your Maldivian experience begins the moment you land at what is considered one of the world's most unique airports! The resorts speedboat captain will meet you upon arrival at Malé International Airport and guide you to your luxuriously equipped water taxi. Then begins your ride across the sparkling emerald waters to your own piece of exclusive paradise in no time.
Seaplane Transfers
Many resorts located on the Indian Ocean islands are spread out so far that Seaplane transfers are the best option to get to your resort in the shortest possible time. As soon as you exit the airport, you are met by the seaplane representative and escorted to the seaplane terminal by coach. The bright and colourful seaplane awaits you with its barefoot pilot! Comfortable seating and extraordinary aerial views makes this journey unforgettable! This short flight provides enough time to spot dolphins, reefs and the amazing atoll formations just before you reach your very own paradise.
Note: Seaplane transfers only operate during the day. Incase of night arrivals or departures we recommend a night at a hotel or resort closer to the international airport.
