Air Malta launches additional flights

An extra four departures as a prelude to summer 2014 season

Air Malta, the national airline of Malta, has announced good news for South West travelers by adding an extra four departures as a prelude to their summer 2014 charter season.

The additional flights on this popular route will commence on Tuesday 8 April 2014, four weeks earlier than originally planned to satisfy expected public demand to the sunshine island in the Mediterranean over the Spring/Easter period.  The direct flights from Exeter airport to Malta are programmed to depart weekly through to 21 October 2014.   
 
Air Malta commented that there is a noticeable increase in demand for shoulder and off-peak holidays, and the climate during the early-spring season should provide the right ambiance to discover the many interesting sites and people within the Maltese islands.

With these added departures and a reduction in traveling time and costs by flying direct  from/to an airport closer to home, regular visitors and also new ones now have more opportunity to fly with Air Malta to the Maltese islands, the airline that truly knows and reflects the motto “Flying the Pride of Malta”.

Air Malta offers a free allowance of 20 kgs for checked-in baggage in the hold and also 10 kgs as hand-luggage per person on all its flights. Flights are available to book via various tour operators and travel agents, but also from the airline’s portal www.airmalta.com
