For a limited time, Emirates is offering a 50 per cent discount on economy class tickets to Larnaca and Dubai, on condition that two passengers travel together.

Business and leisure travellers can take advantage of this offer when booking and purchasing tickets to these two destinations from September 1 to 15.

Passengers can book a return flight from Malta to Cyprus for only €221 and to Dubai for €532. These fares include both fuel surcharge and applicable taxes. However, when travelling on a Friday, Saturday or Sunday, there will be €20 weekend surcharge for each flight.

Emirates manager for Malta Paul Fleri Soler said: “The summer holidays may be drawing to a close but there is still time to grab a quick trip to Dubai or Cyprus for a last-minute break. This is a great opportunity to experience the in-flight services offered by Emirates and I have no doubt this offer will be well received by our customers.”
