Malta International Airport has welcomed its four millionth passenger this year, breaking last year’s record.

A spokesman said the airport saw an average of more than 12,000 passengers every day, enough to fill Wembley Stadium each week.

“This is a remarkable achievement. We have registered record growth in seven years out of the past eight. We remain focused on developing sustainable capacity and attracting visitors to our islands while offering new and exciting destinations to the local market,” CEO Markus Klaushofer said.
