The Northeast Monsoon, a key weather phenomenon in the Maldives, typically begins in late December and extends from January to March. However, in 2024, its onset was delayed until January 2, 2025. This monsoon, characterized by easterly winds, contrasts with the Southwest Monsoon, which dominates from May to November. Initial signs of the Northeast Monsoon are usually observed in early December, progressing from the northern atolls to the rest of the country by January. For the monsoon to be officially declared, easterly winds sustained at 10 knots or more must prevail for at least two consecutive days.

On this International Day of the Air Traffic Controller, we honor the indispensable role that air traffic controllers play in ensuring the safety and efficiency of global aviation. These dedicated professionals manage the complex and dynamic airspace, guiding aircraft safely from takeoff to landing. Their expertise and vigilance are crucial in preventing collisions, managing traffic flow, and responding to emergencies.

In the Maldives, air traffic controllers are particularly vital, given the unique challenges of managing air traffic over an archipelago. Their work ensures that both international flights and domestic seaplane operations run smoothly, contributing significantly to the nation’s tourism and economy.

We extend our deepest gratitude to all air traffic controllers for their unwavering commitment to keeping our skies safe.
