Malé International Airport

Malé International Airport (VRMM) is a large airport in Malé, MLE, Maldives. Pilots and dispatchers reference it by ICAO code VRMM or IATA code MLE. It sits in Asia.

Malé International Airport is a commercial-airline hub that also handles a steady stream of private and corporate traffic. Mixed commercial and private operations mean planners should expect slot coordination, handling agent involvement, and the usual international hub procedures.

Malé International Airport sits near sea level at 6 ft.

Local operations run on Indian/Maldives. Because the field hosts scheduled airline operations, private operators should expect a defined slot environment, possible CDM coordination at peak banks, and limited ramp availability during major event weekends. Booking FBO ramp space in advance is normal practice.

SkyAccess currently tracks 1 departing and 2 arriving private-jet legs at VRMM across the next six months of operator inventory. 2 charter operators have run trips through this field in our recent inventory window.

As one of the larger fields in Maldives, VRMM tends to be the natural choice for long-range international charters and crew-rest-required flights.

Velana International Airport (VIA), also known as Malé-Velana International Airport is the main international airport in the Maldives. It is located on Hulhulé Island in Kaafu Atoll, nearby the capital island Malé. The airport is well connected with major airports around the world, mostly serving as the main gateway into the Maldives for tourists. It is managed financially and administratively by a state owned company known as Maldives Airports Company Limited (MACL).
