The number of tourists visiting the Maldives in 2020 was significantly lower than in previous years, and the country's economy suffered as a result. The resumption of flights to the Maldives is a significant step in the country's path to economic recovery.

The Maldives is taking several measures to ensure that tourists can enjoy their stay on the island nation without worrying about the pandemic. The country has a strict health and safety protocol in place to prevent the spread of COVID-19. Tourists are required to present a negative PCR test result upon arrival and are subject to random testing during their stay.

Additionally, the Maldives government has launched a vaccination program for its citizens and is working towards vaccinating the tourism industry's workers. The country aims to become one of the first nations to achieve herd immunity, which will further enhance its appeal as a safe tourist destination.

In conclusion, the resumption of flights to the Maldives is a positive sign for the country's tourism industry. The Maldives is one of the most beautiful destinations in the world, and tourists from across the globe can now visit the country more conveniently. The country's strict health and safety protocol will ensure that tourists can enjoy their stay on the island nation without worrying about the pandemic.
