Montreal to Maldives (Stopover in UAE +$29 CDN) $902+ CDN TAXES INCLUDED! Select Dates in Sept-Nov 2021 & Feb-April 2022
- Retailer:
- Ethiad Airways
Was searching for flights this morning and discovered Etihad Airways has a really good deal for flights from Montreal (YUL) to Maldives (MLE).
2 layovers each way (Toronto & Abu Dhabi)
Great deal for those people who previously bought accommodation vouchers from Travelzoo for Maldives resorts.
Prices are as low as $902 CDN roundtrip taxes included when you book directly with Etihad Airways (strongly recommended to book direct with the airline since Etihad as a flexible ticket option - free to change your dates or cancel & receive airline credit)
If you want to book a stopover in the UAE (Abu Dhabi UAE Airport code AUH.... roughly a 1 hour drive to Dubai) it says in the fare structure it's free to do so but it's pricing out to be an extra $29 CDN.
Easiest way for me to find working date combinations is to use Google Flights, filter by selecting: Air Canada & Etihad, and space out your dates by roughly one week.
Example:
YUL-MLE: March 19-28 $902 CDN:

YUL-AUH (stopover)-MLE: March 19, March 26 & April 2 $931 CDN:

This deal isn't for everyone, Maldives is usually $1800 RT for flights alone, so you're getting the flights for roughly 50% off plus the option of a free stopover in UAE (Dubai), so 2 trips in one. Both the UAE & Maldives have been fairly safe Covid wise compared to a lot of other locations around the world.
