Ethiopian Airlines will introduce a second daily flight between Addis Ababa and the Seychelles from 1 December, adding more than 1,000 seats per week. Visitors to the Tourism Seychelles stand (N11-520) will hear how the additional service gives the trade greater flexibility when packaging holidays to the Seychelles, providing convenient connections through Addis Ababa from a range of international markets.

The team will highlight how the additional frequency is particularly useful for agents creating more flexible multi-island or longer-stay itineraries, while also strengthening the Seychelles’ overall international connectivity.

Tourism Seychelles will also spotlight a number of new hotel openings, including La Reserve Seychelles, which opens this month (October). It is the first La Reserve property in the Seychelles, offering six large private villas overlooking Anse Boudin and Curieuse Marine Park.

Fregate Island is slated to re-open in late 2026 following a major, conservation-led reconstruction, and will offer 16 reimagined private villas.

Melia Sea Front Mahe Island is also set to open in late 2026, and the beachfront luxury property will feature suites, villas and residences.

In January 2026, the former Hilton Seychelles Labriz Resort & Spa on Silhouette Island transitioned into Niva Labriz Seychelles, positioned around high-end, nature-led, experience-focused travel.

Karen Confait, Marketing Director, Tourism Seychelles, said: "There has never been a more exciting time for the trade to rediscover Seychelles. The destination continues to evolve, with new accommodation concepts, enhanced air connectivity and an increasingly diverse range of experiences for clients to enjoy.

“Our priority is to ensure UK travel professionals have the knowledge, confidence and first-hand experience they need to sell Seychelles successfully – not simply as a honeymoon destination, but as a versatile, year-round choice for luxury, family, adventure, wellness, nature and experiential travel."
