Malta International Airport has the third most international connections of 136 airports in its class, according to a Centre for Aviation study.
MIA placed third among the Airport Council International’s community of airports hosting less than five million passengers per year.
“We are incredibly proud of this achievement, which shows that the hard work, in collaboration with the Tourism Ministry and MTA, is reaping results. Our strategy is to keep forging relationships with potential operators to welcome new routes and keep making Malta more accessible,” interim CEO Alan Borg said. “We will keep working on expanding our brand and increasing our destination network. We look forward to welcoming a few new airlines and routes this year, including Aegean Air to Athens, Finnair to Helsinki, Swiss to Zurich, and Jet2.com to several UK destinations,” he said.
