The Indian Association of Tour Operators estimates that the outcome of the growing protests against Maldives on social media will become clear within the next 20-25 days. He says that if a person has already booked the flight and hotel then he will not cancel it. However, he says that there have been no new inquiries for Maldives for the last few days.

However, expectations of new bookings are low.
