What does "transit time" mean for the Maldives's rule regarding COVID testing?

Upvote:12

All tourists are required to hold a negative PCR test for COVID-19 conducted 96 hours prior the scheduled time of departure from the first port of embarkation enroute to Maldives.

If the tourist makes a transit during the journey, the initial PCR test will be valid if the transit does not exceed 24 hours.

If the tourist makes a transit exceeding 24 hours, the passenger must repeat the PCR test within 96 hours prior to embarkation at the port of transit.

It seems quite clear from "makes a transit during the journey" and "embarkation at the port of transit" that transit here means connection or layover.

So you should be fine with one single test taken within 96 hours prior to your scheduled time of departure from LAX.

Of course, in the current situation, avoiding travel would still be the best option.
