As seaplanes take off and land on the water, they can only operate during daylight hours, as determined by sunrise and sunset. We advise that you plan to arrive into the Maldives by 3:00 pm local time in order to be able to connect to Six Senses Laamu on the same day. You should plan for an international departure flight no earlier than 9:30 am local time when leaving the Maldives. Our seaplane transfers operate as a private charter service for our guests only and are direct to Six Senses Laamu. Exact timings will be communicated to guests upon arrival in Malé and guests can await their departure in the lounge.
