“The two previously costliest fares have been annulled,” said Waseem.

Maldivian previously also had discounted fares, but many had complained about the insufficient quantity of discounted fares available from the airlines.

Maldivian previously provided assurance the airline will not compromise the quality of its service to make up for the reduction in its profit from lowering its fares.

The airline also announced it plans on providing refreshments to passengers on its flights.
