How good are these Air Asia fares?
- Price: Okay. We have recently seen fares drop as low as $378 return with Scoot, another budget airline but you're still paying almost half of what full-service airlines are charging.
- Airline: Good. The airline has been named World's Best Low-Cost Airline and has held that spot for nine straight years. AirAsia is a budget airline, though, and fares mentioned above only include your seat so extras like checked bags will incur a fee.
- Travel time: Good. All flights include a stopover but luckily it's in Kuala Lumpur, one of the best layover airports.
- Weather: Okay. We're not going to lie, these travel dates fall during the rainy season in Maldives when you can expect at least daily afternoon showers. There are some advantages to travelling during this time including great diving and snorkelling as well as far fewer crowds.
