Sad to say it is quite expensive to get there.
Expect to pay anywhere from $3000 to $4000 in airfare alone flying out of JFK. And it takes 2 days to get there from North America (overnight flight to Europe, waiting approximately 9 hours for the connection, plus another overnight flight to Mahe). Jet lag, anyone???
The best itinerary I found is to fly Alitalia into Milano and connect with an Air Seychelles flight.
In my humble opinion, I honestly think "they" keep the prices high so as to avoid a huge influx of visitors. And I think I recall reading exactly that in a guidebook too.
