The Maldives have been touted as “the islands you need to visit before they disappear.” Unfortunately, an affordable trip to the tropical paradise disappeared in just days, not decades.
Last week bargain hunting site Dan’s Deals alerted his largely Jewish readers to a bargain by Emirates, the airline owned by the government of Dubai.
He informed his readers that “Emirates is an excellent airline and there are no issues for Orthodox Jews.” One-way flights from the Maldives to London last week were going for $64 – less than a tenth of the usual price. A trip from the Maldives to New York was just $142.
Emirates then canceled the tickets, leaving many people who paid for other flights and hotels stranded. Dan’s Deals directed them to a higher authority – the Department of Transportation – to get reimbursed by Emirates.
