Soaring fares

In October, the fare quoted on the Air Malta website for two return tickets for next summer was £480. I e-mailed Air Malta to ask whether there was some mistake as it was much higher than last year at £166 per ticket. No reply has been forthcoming.

I e-mailed Air Malta to ask whether there was some mistake as it was much higher than last year at £166 per ticket. No reply has been forthcoming. This week I booked my two flight tickets with British Airways for £337, a saving of £147. My family has always travelled with Air Malta, but unless they bring their air fares more in line with their competitors, they will be losing more of their customers.
