Thanks danpass, I can't answer you factually but I doubt it. Transmaldivian is an airline so I'm not sure if they would accommodate it. Doesn't hurt to ask I guess...? You get good fly-bys of the island when you land and take-off, if that helps.

Hi daKav, another poster answered you. All three Middle Eastern airlines have good schedules to Male. Emirates has the biggest fleet though so it is also the fastest and most malleable.
