Because there are only a select few airlines that venture out to French Polynesia, you’ll find that getting there isn’t quite as easy as you might assume. Another thing you’ll want to note is that the airlines that do travel to French Polynesia all fly into Tahiti, before departing to the other nearby islands. Thankfully, Moorea is practically in the shadow of Tahiti so you actually have a few transportation options, unlike most of the rest in the large island group, where a flight is the only practical way of getting there.
Although you’ll find that getting to Tahiti isn’t the cheapest, the adventure over tends to be both easy and straightforward. This is because there are only a few airlines that fly into Papeete’s Faa’a International Airport, which serves as a hub for the entire South Pacific. Regardless of which direction you are coming from, you’ll be arriving on a huge wide-body jet such as a 747, so even the coach seats tend to be roomy and comfortable, which is a nice thing to look forward to.
It’s very easy to see why so many people from around the world consider the island of Bora Bora to be the most beautiful spot on earth. Part of the appeal for this island is both the remoteness and solitude, which will serve you well, especially for a honeymoon trip. The downside to this remoteness is that Bora Bora is not a place that you can reach quickly or cheaply, unless you are already in French Polynesia.
Once you arrive in the Maldives, you’ll feel as though you’ve arrived in paradise, especially at your overwater bungalow resort, as the location is quite remote for pretty much everyone. Spread over a huge area just southwest of India, The Maldives is located many thousands of kilometers from Europe, and even quite a long way from the Middle East as well.
Fortunately, there are many flights into Malé International Airport from all over the globe, making it so that most people will only have to change planes once along the way.
