A short 5 minute drive to the tarmac/apron plane area

And to our A320.

Very pleasant cabin for a short 4 hour regional flight.

Great pre-departure service.

Adequate IFE for regional service including live camera.

The very latest in movies. LOL.

Loved the language choices, especially coming from Montreal. Not just French but Parisian French.

After take-off our wonderful crew of two lovely FAs worked nonstop for the full cabin of 16. OK, I'm impressed. Full salt and pepper shakers to accompany my Bloody Mary.

And in another distinction between a great airline and mediocre NA airlines, a substantial curtain blocking the galley from the main cabin.

Today's menu.

And the wine list. Meh.

Today's meal, starting with the crab.

The red snapper tasted better than it looked.

Time to fill out Maldives arrival form.

Including the forbidden checklist.

Our first glimpse of Maldives.
