Five major misconceptions to avoid for booking the best Maldives family holiday package

If you plan to book the best Maldives family holiday package, you need to know its many misconceptions to avoid them. Some may have misconceptions about culture, climate, costs, and the many activities and things to see and enjoy in the Maldives. Maldives tourism accounts for 28% of its GDP, as 90% of its government tax revenue is only from the tourism-related taxes and import duties. Hence, many misconceptions about visiting the Maldives are wrong as its government ensures all steps to make your trip an enjoyable and unforgettable experience. Anyone can get a 30-day tourist visa on arrival in the Maldives with a valid passport and sufficient funds.

So, check out the top ten misconceptions to avoid for booking the best Maldives family holiday package from an experienced and specialist tour operator.

Five main misconceptions to avoid for booking the best Maldives family holiday package

The Maldives has only half a million inhabitants in its 1192 islands, of which only around 200 islands are inhabited. Of these, 132 resort islands are in the Maldives, and Male is the most popular among them. The 2004 tsunami caused a loss of over 400 million dollars and divested most of these islands. Hence, many misconceptions exist about the suitable islands, costs, facilities, airports, activities, and resorts, among others, to book the best Maldives family holiday package. A few of them include.

The Maldives is best only for a honeymoon.

Many people want to book only the best Maldives honeymoon packages as they think that is only best for the honeymoon. But the Maldives is not only heaven for the newlywed couples but also the entire family and friends, with many stunning islands and a lot of activities above and below the crystal-clear blue waters surrounding them.

2. Maldives tourism is expensive.

The Maldives thrives on its tourism business, with many over a hundred islands having private resorts to suit the budget and not break the bank. From the five-star resorts of the Taj Group, which are the most luxurious and expensive, to budget resorts, there is one suitable for all. Hence, choosing the right Maldives family holiday package per the budget will not make it expensive.

3. No direct flights to the Maldives

Contrary to many who think there are direct flights to the Maldives, many airlines have it from many countries like India, Dubai, China, and Sri Lanka. British Airways, Iberia, and others have direct flights to the MLE or the Male International airport. There are also chartered flights from Europe, China, and Singapore.

4. Not enough facilities to travel to the many islands

From live aboard or localized cruise ships which have a wide range of facilities and accommodations to visit the many islands, there are small yachts and houseboats to safari the pristine waters of the Maldives

2. Worried about Maldives climate, culture, and language

The Maldives is a mix of many cultures that, reflected in their songs and dances, are additional attractions. Also, the average climate is only around 25 degrees Celsius and crosses the 30 degrees level rarely to have pleasant weather throughout the year. And most of the people here speak English sufficiently to have no language problems.

The best Maldives specialist tour operator will clear all the misconceptions and offer the best Maldives family holiday package for your next vacation to have the best time of your life.

The Difference Between Short And Long Haul Holidays

Let’s discuss the 2 types of holidays and what the differences are.

What is the difference between a short haul and a long haul holiday?

Short Haul Holidays

A short haul destination is good for families as the travel isn’t that far for young children to sit on a plane, normally you can find discount holidays to these destinations from leading tour operators that I have based my research on.

A short haul holiday normally comprises of a flight less than 4 hours from the UK. Destinations include France, Italy, Greece and Turkey fall under the short haul category.

The total all inclusive package is ideal for the family holiday and many discounts are usually on offer for the featured destinations.

That’s short haul looked at now let’s discuss long haul.

Long Haul Travel

A leading holiday company I’ve come across is a long haul specialist travel company and have the whole world covered when it comes to long haul travel, they pride themselves in supplying luxury accommodation in these destinations and won various travel awards for the past 25 years which stands this company out from the crowd.

Long haul holiday destinations are the more far away areas of the world such as India, Thailand, China and Japan to name a few.

The flights to these destinations are normally 8 hours plus from the UK and sometimes require a change of plane en-route especially destinations such as Australia and New Zealand.

The best place to find discount holidays usually is the short haul market as there are more flights that the tour operators will allocate seats on and if they don’t sell they normally go on offer.

There is a middle haul destination range for flights about 6 hours from the UK and places to visit include Dubai, Egypt and more.

ALL Thai Airways Staff on Temporary Leave From 4 April

Thai Airways has announced that all of its staff will be placed on temporary leave from 4 April to 31 May 2020. The airline suspended flights on 1 April and is currently hoping to resume operations on 31 May 2020, though this could change depending on the COVID19 pandemic and the many different global travel restrictions and border closures. All Thai Airways' overseas offices have also been temporarily closed and some of the staff were transferred to Bangkok.

Thai Airways' customers will still be able to contact the airline through the following channels: - For ticketing, contact the Larn Luang office on weekdays, except public holidays, from 08:00 to 17:00. - For reservations, contact the 24/7 contact center on 02 356 1111. - For cargo the 24/7 contact center telephone number is 02 137 4200. According to the airline, the above services are being provided by volunteers who would normally be working as Thai Airways' pilots and cabin crew. Passengers can also try to make changes to their itineraries personally on Thai Airways' website. A statement issued by the airline on 2 April 2020, said, "THAI will resume full services as soon as the situation improves. THAI conveys apologies for any inconvenience that may arise."

Everything You Need to Know About LEGOLAND New York, LEGO's Biggest Theme Park Yet

LEGO fans can go crazy at seven different themed lands, with 50 rides and attractions.

Lovers of all things LEGO are getting to have another reason to be happy this year when LEGOLAND NY Resort opens. this may be the company's third LEGO amusement park to open within the United States; there are currently locations in California and Florida. And, when the ribbon is cut, it's getting to be the most important LEGOLAND ever built so far.

LEGOLAND NY will open on Independence Day, 2020, with seven lands and funky rides. Park developers Merlin Entertainments announced that LEGOLAND NY is going to be opening over the Fourth of July weekend. At its launch day, 150 of the five hundred acres are going to be ready. They'll be organized into seven different "lands":

You'll enter through the "Factory," and knowledge the LEGO manufacturing process from the purpose of view of a minifig. Bricktopia is that the land where wannabe Master Builders can make creations, and test them up against a table that simulates an earthquake. LEGO Ninjago World allows kids to be aspiring ninjas — they will enroll during a ninja training camp, where they'll "learn to spin, climb, and become a master of the weather ." Knights’ Kingdom will feature an enormous LEGO castle, and also a Dragon-themed roller coaster. LEGO City is home to minifigs who are trying to find heroes, and your kids can learn to be firefighters or other rescuers. Pirate Shores lets kids climb around on a pirate and play with water. Miniland, which may be a feature of each LEGOLAND, re-creates cities, landmarks, and other attractions re-built in miniature entirely out of LEGO bricks. Each of those lands will have its rides, attractions, shows, and activities — there'll be 50 in total. one among the most attractions are going to be the LEGO® Factory Adventure ride, where riders are going to be "shrunken down" and journey on a ride, following along as LEGO bricks get made. At one point, riders will get to ascertain themselves transformed into LEGO minifigs that look a bit like them! consistent with a LEGOLAND handout, this needs "the world's most advanced motion tracking and facial detection technology." LEGO bricks may look simple, but becoming one takes tons of labor.

LEGOLAND NY Resort is going to be appropriate for teenagers between the ages of two and 12. And their parents, too, of course. The park notes that the majority of the rides are designed for the family to enjoy together. But you've got to plan it right: While there could also be some educational areas that stay open in winter, and while the hotel is going to be a year-round destination, the park will only be open from late spring to early fall.

When the park is open, if you do not care about the rides — if you're in it for the merch and therefore the merch only — a shopper's pass is going to be available. you will be ready to enter and make your purchases for one hour.

But heed your time: you will need to go away a day's worth of admission at the gate as a deposit, which can be returned to you once you allow within the hour deadline. (Whether or not that's a money-saving option depends on what percentage LEGO sets you to walk home with — sadly, you cannot use gift cards at the park.)

You can already buy tickets and annual park passes. The pricing tickets start at $63 for one-day admission, but if you propose on being a repeat visitor, you would possibly want to seem at a number of the opposite pricing tiers. A $110 Premium Pass, for instance, allows you unlimited entrance to the park for 12 months after your first visit and gets you perks like free parking, so it is the better deal if you propose going twice. A $200 Gold Pass also will get you free entrance to other attractions from Merlin Entertainments, like Sea Life aquariums or Madame Tussaud's wax museums.

If you are looking to form an entire weekend out of the trip, you'll also inspect the holiday packages being offered, which include discounts on stays at partner hotels. A LEGOLAND hotel is within the works — just steps from the park, and LEGO-themed — but it won't be open until 2021, so these are your best bets.

Isn't there already a Legoland NY? Not quite. there is a LEGOLAND "Discovery Center" in Yonkers, New York, just outside of the town in Westchester County. There are two rides within the Center — a Merlin's Apprentice ride (a spinning ride) and a Kingdom Quest ride (where kids sit during a car and shoot at LEGO-themed targets) — but it is not exactly a funfair.

Instead, the middle is more of a LEGO playground, geared more for activities sort of a 4D movie, building structures on top of earthquake tables, or learning with a licensed Master Builder. Certainly fun, but almost an equivalent LEGOLAND experience that's in Florida and California.

There are international cities that have LEGOLAND theme parks, too; the primary one built was actually in Billund, Denmark. additionally, you'll find them in Günzburg, Germany; Windsor, England; Nagoya, Japan; Iskandar Puteri, Malaysia; Dubai, UAE. After Goshen, subsequent parks are planned to open in Gangwon Province, South Korea, and Shanghai, China.

10 best islands for a Malaysia holiday

From the cosmopolitan charm of Penang to the hippie getaway of the Perhentians, a diverse array of islands offer a huge variety of Malaysia holiday options. Here, in no particular order, we present our Top 10 best islands in Malaysia. 1. Perhentians: Hippie hideaway

While many backpacker haunts have become gentrified over time, the Perhentians have managed to retain their low-key vibe. Courtesy G E M/Creative Commons/Flickr They might not be easy to get to, but the Perhentian islands off the northeast coast of Peninsular Malaysia have achieved iconic status on the backpacker trail. And for good reason -- the waters are so clean that you can snorkel right off the beach and still see a diverse array of aquatic life. Fishermen turned tour guides will also take you out in their small boat for a day trip to swim with sharks and turtles. In the evening, beach bars set up cushions on the sand as wandering fire artists do their thing. Where to stay: For high-end Malaysia holiday lodgings, check out the Tuna Bay Island Resort. Budget hunters should look up Abdul Chalet. Getting there: Regular buses leave from Hentian Putra bus station in Kuala Lumpur, taking nine hours. Alternatively, fly from Kuala Lumpur's LCCT airport to Kota Bharu, and then catch a taxi to the port town of Kuala Besut. 2. Tioman: An island for flashpackers

The island of Tioman and the waters surrounding it are protected nature reserves, which has helped it retain its wild vibe. Courtesy tak.wing/Creative Commons/Flickr Although part of the Malaysian state of Pahang, Tioman is actually reached from the Johor town of Mersing. There's also a direct ferry from Singapore. This popular Malysia holiday island has two claims to fame that continue to be hyped by media and marketers. One, the dramatic topography of this teardrop-shaped isle in the South China Sea was (supposedly) used as a backdrop for the 1958 movie "South Pacific," while Time magazine named it one of the world's most beautiful islands in the 1970s. Though it's now a firm fixture on the tourist trail and has lost a little of its exotic mystique, it retains --- where many of its Southeast Asian contemporaries have lost theirs --- the natural environment and wildlife that first made it famous. First among animals, on land at least, are the giant monitor lizards that roam among the kampungs (Malay for villages) in search of food. Don't worry, they avoid humans. Most of the time. Where to stay: For a boutique experience, check out JapaMala. Getting there: There are bus services from all over Malaysia to Mersing; from here it's a two-hour boat ride to the first jetty on the island. Tioman also has a small airport, which Berjaya Airways flies to from Kuala Lumpur and Singapore. 3. Langkawi: Best for luxury

Don't worry, Lankawai has the same stunning beaches as the rest of these islands. We just thought you might be tired of looking at white sand. Courtesy Jan Bjerring/Creative Commons/Flickr Located right by the border with Thailand, Langkawi is part of the Malaysian state of Kedah, not Perlis which is in fact directly adjacent. Famously, the Malaysia island was believed to have been cursed in 1819, when a woman named Mahsuri, was put to death for alleged adultery. Before she died, she uttered the words, "There shall be no peace and prosperity on this island for a period of seven generations." Two years later Langkawi fell to the invading Thais, with much of its population subsequently dying from starvation. The island was then indeed barren for a long time, before Prime Minister Mahatir Mohamed --- the colossus of Malaysian politics who also built Kuala Lumpur's Petronas Towers and the Sepang F1 circuit --- decided to turn it into a resort island in 1986. He declared it a duty-free island, and ever since then Langkawi's growth has been nothing short of spectacular, with high-profile resorts dotting its sandy shores to make it a Malaysia holiday star. The best way to take it all in is on the 2,200-meter-long cable car, which rises some 710 meters above sea level. Interestingly, Mahsuri's husband and son moved to Phuket after the Thai invasion, and it was on that island that her seventh generation descendant was born --- in the year 1986. Coincidence? Where to stay: They don't come much more stylish --- or eclectic --- than Bon Ton, eight traditional Malay homes set in a former coconut plantation. Or there's always the Four Seasons Resort Langkawi. Getting there: Langkawi has by far the best flight connections of any Malaysian island, with dozens of daily flights to Kuala Lumpur, Singapore and Penang. 4. Penang: Food and heritage

Historic Georgetown is a highlight of Penang. Courtesy Phalinn Ooi/Creative Commons/Flickr The Pearl of the Orient has a long and illustrious history. "Discovered" by Captain Francis Light in 1786, Prince of Wales Island, as it once was known, was for a long time one of the jewels of the British empire. Alongside Melaka and Singapore it was known as one of the Straits Settlements, a string of outposts that dominated the sea trade between India and the rest of Asia. However, its importance gradually waned over the centuries, before it was rediscovered as a Malaysia holiday destination and reinvented as an IT hub. Today, under the close eye of Malaysian opposition and Penang Chief Minister Lim Guan Eng, the island is proudly parading its past --- the UNESCO status granted to historic Georgetown in 2008 guarantees that. But its greatest attraction is its street food --- from Penang laksa off Macalister Road to banana leaf in Little India to seafood on Gurney Drive --- you'll find it all here. Alongside a raft of improvements designed to attract even more visitors, including investment in public transport, a tree planting program, pedestrianization schemes and a schedule of new cultural festivals and fairs, this magnificent island --- only slightly smaller than Singapore --- is once again making its mark on the world stage. Where to stay: Since 1948, the recently restored Lone Pine sits serenely on the north shore of the island, while for city digs look no further than the Hotel Penaga, heritage buildings in the heart of town. Attracting a lot of attention among luxury lovers is the Eastern & Oriental Hotel, a restored colonial property. Getting there: Flights from around the world land at Penang International Airport. From there, inexpensive taxis can transport you to destinations around the island, or you can catch the airport bus into town. 5. Labuan: An isle of bankers

Clear waters, white sands and offshore banks. What everyone looks for in an island. Courtesy prilfish/Creative Commons/Flickr Located off the coast of East Malaysia, sandwiched between Sarawak and Sabah, Labuan is one of three Federal Territories (the others are Kuala Lumpur and Putrajaya). Its special status as an international offshore financial centre and free trade zone has allowed it to attract outside investment from the financial sector (some 6,500 offshore companies are based here). Long-term, the Malaysian government envisions the island as becoming one of the world's major offshore business centres, akin to the Middle Eastern hubs of Dubai or Bahrain. While it has some way to go to achieve similar status, the nation has a track record of dreaming big and making it happen -- the Petronas Towers and annual F1 race attest to that. If you're not involved in the financial services, there are other reasons to visit such as wreck diving. Over the years, numerous ships were sunk in the shallow waters off Labuan, making it ideal for novice divers. These are simply known as the American, Australian, Blue Water and Cement Wreck. There is also a well-tended War Cemetery, where an annual remembrance ceremony is held for some 3,900 Allied soldiers who died during in World War II. Where to stay: For both service and quality, it's a close toss-up between the Tiara Labuanand the Grand Dorsett. Getting there: There are daily flights to Labuan Airport from Kuala Lumpur, Miri in Sarawak and Kota Kinabalu in Sabah. There is also an air-conditioned ferry to Brunei. 6. Layang-Layang: Isolation guaranteed

Would you call this an island? Layang-Layang's isolation makes it one of Asia's best diving experiences. Courtesy Matthew Lee/Creative Commons/Flickr Little more than a coral reef with a runway, the tiny island of Layang-Layang is located some 300 kilometers northwest of the Sabah capital of Kota Kinabalu (KK), the state to which it belongs. A creation of the Malaysian Navy, which reclaimed land from the sea in order to state the nation's sovereignty over the Spratlys, that South China Sea island group also claimed whole or in part by China, Taiwan, Vietnam and the Philippines. Surrounded by pristine waters that drop to 2,000 meters, Layang-Layang is often ranked as one of the top 10 dive sites in the world due to its remarkable array of marine life. Due to the Navy's presence, the coral reef has been spared the explosive damage caused by dynamite fishing and other destructive practices, leading to underwater visibility of more than 40 meters. Particularly of note are the schools of scalloped hammerhead sharks, which can sometimes number in the hundreds, though you can also expect to see manta rays, dolphins, barracuda and turtles. Where to stay: Easy one to answer. At the only game in town, the traditional-styled Layang Layang Island Resort run by the Avillion group. Getting there: The only way in and out of this Malaysia island is on a charter flight from Kota Kinbalu, with the price included in the various packages offered by the only place to stay on the island. 7. Sipadan: For hard-core divers

In his 1989 film "Borneo: The Ghost of the Sea Turtle," famed underwater explorer Jacques Cousteau said, "I have seen other places like Sipadan, 45 years ago, but now no more. Now we have found an untouched piece of art." Courtesy Benjamin Hollis/Creative commons/Flickr At the end of 2002, following a long dispute with Indonesia, the International Court of Justice ruled that the island of Sipadan was Malaysian. The country, and the state of Sabah which it is part of, have reason to be relieved. Sipadan is often rated as the world's best dive site, with a location in the centre of the planet's most bio-diverse marine habitat. In order to protect the fragile ecosystem of this Malaysia holiday destination, in 2004 the government ordered all of the dive resorts off the island, banned night dives and set a limit of 120 divers per day. The move worked, as the surrounding waters continue to teem with life. It's home to 3,000 species of fish, hundreds of species of coral, an abundance of rays and sharks and large populations of green and hawksbill turtles --- so much so there is a famous turtle tomb, an underwater labyrinth that has drowned many of the unfortunate sea creatures. Where to stay: As you are not allowed to stay on Sipadan itself, stay close by at theSipadan Kapalai Dive Resort built on stilts over the water or Sipadan Pom Pom Resort. Getting there: It's a 55-minute flight from Kota Kinbalu to the town of Tawau, an hour's drive to the even smaller township of Semporna, and then a 40-minute speedboat ride. 8. Redang: For a 'Summer Holiday'

If you get tired of white beaches, Redang has plenty of wildlife, including monkeys, deer and monitor lizards. Courtesy Phalinn Ool/Creative Commons/Flickr The Redang archipelago actually consists of nine islands, namely Lima, Paku Besar, Paku Kecil, Kerengga Besar, Kerengga Kecil, Ekor Tebu, Ling, Pinang and Redang itself. Together, they form a marine park situated 45 kilometers off the east Peninsular Malaysia state of Terengganu. Unlike its close cousins, the backpacker-filled Perhentian islands to the north, Redang is very much an upmarket destination, with mostly resort accommodation on offer. Accordingly, the island also has its own airport, served by Berjaya Air, which since 2004 has flown daily to Kuala Lumpur's Subang Airport and Singapore's Changi. With excellently preserved coral, the main attractions of Redang are snorkeling, diving and the crystal clear waters. You'll need to stick close to the shoreline regardless, as the interior is mostly impassable, apart from a road that connects the airport with the coast. In 2000, the Malaysian island was the setting for Hong Kong movie "Summer Holiday," which featured Cantopop star Sammi Cheng and Taiwanese heartthrob Richie Ren. The success of the film led to a sudden influx of tourists. Where to stay: The same company that owns the only airport and airline to fly in, also has the best place to stay, The Taaras, by Berjaya. However, film fans should head to the Laguna Redang Island Resort, where the colourful souvenir shop was a key setting in the movie "Summer Holiday." Getting there: If you don't want to pay to fly in directly, the alternative is to fly to Kuala Terengganu, and then continue by car and take a ferry from the port of Merang. 9. Rawa: For a weekend break

Not all of us have opportunities to stay in a sultan's lair. Rawa is the next best thing. Courtesy Phalinn Ooi/Creative Commons/Flickr There aren't many chances to stay on a Sultan's private island. Rawa is one. Owned by the family of the Sultanate of Johor, Rawa is a small island 16 kilometers off the east coast of Peninsula Malaysia. Only two resorts hug its white-sand fringed west coast, which is accessible by boat from the mainland port of Mersing (also the departure point for more distant Tioman). Because of this exclusivity, Rawa attracts tourists looking for a more secluded vacation. While the west coast is postcard perfect, the rest of the shoreline consists of inaccessible, dramatic rocky cliffs that plunge directly into the sea. To check these out, take the easy way and rent a canoe or hike up steep steps to the summit of the island, from where you have vantages of the eastern shore, the coast of Johor and the other 12 small islands that make up the Johor Marine Park. As your choice of accommodation is limited -- it can often fill up quick with young Singaporeans looking for a weekend getaway -- so book up early. Where to stay: There are only two places to stay on the island: Rawa Island Resort or the smaller Alang's Rawa. Getting there: From Kuala Lumpur, catch a bus or drive to Mersing, from where regular ferries depart. Note that during low season (November to March), ferry frequency can drop sharply. 10. Pangkor: Loved by locals

Tiny Pulau Pangkor lies off Perak on the west coast of peninsular Malaysia. Courtesy Phalinn Ooi/Creative Commons/Flickr Despite measuring just eight square kilometres, Pulau Pangkor (pulau is the Malay word for island) is one of the most popular beach getaways in Malaysia -- among locals, that is. Pangkor is one of the country's most accessible islands, yet it is overwhelmingly the preserve of Malaysians, who head there every long weekend for a little rest and relaxation. There is little in terms of nightlife but instead you'll find uncrowded sandy beaches, a huge variety of amazing local cuisine and friendly people. Where to stay: Try the Pangkor Island Beach Resort. Getting there: There are direct flights to the island from Subang's Sultan Abdul Aziz Shah Airport via Kuala Lumpur, or it's a 30 minute ferry ride from the town of Lumut.
