“The route to the Maldives is Iberia’s first tourist destination in the Indian Ocean, which has proved to be one of the safest countries in the face of COVID-19,” said María Jesús López Solás, Commercial Director, Network Development & Alliances. “Without a doubt, the Maldives is our star destination for this summer and at Iberia we are committed to diversifying our offer and attracting more sustainable and quality tourism,” she added.
