Towards mid-year of 2020, half of the seaplane Twin Otter fleet belonging to the world's largest seaplane operator Trans Maldivian Airways were parked at the eastern apron in Velana International Airport as operations came to a near halt.
A year on since borders reopened to the Maldives, tourist arrival has hit a major high in July with a major spike in arrivals.
