The Maldives celebrated the opening of the upgraded Velana International Airport, made possible with the backing of the Abu Dhabi Fund for Development (ADFD) and regional partners. This significant step increases the airport’s capacity to over 7 million passengers per year, further solidifying the nation’s connectivity and tourism growth. The recent inauguration of Maafaru International Airport complements this development, showcasing ADFD’s commitment to sustainable progress in the Maldives.
