Jenn,
My husband and I flew to Seychelles in February from the west coast. As you've noted, it is difficult to book flights and tickets are very expensive (we ended up using frequent flier miles). As glenkasner notes in his post, you might want to transit via Europe or Africa. I've found the cheaper fares to be from Paris (CDG) out of LAX with an ongoing flight into Mahe on Air France or Emirates. If you book the trip under two itineraries, be sure to allow at least a day in between your arrivals and departures to make sure you can catch your connecting flight (airlines aren't responsible to get you to your connecting flight if you book the tickets under two separate reservations).
Good luck! My husband and I dream of going back soon. It's definitely worth the long flights!!!
