Air Malta has moved its Malta-Moscow operation to Sheremetyevo Airport Terminal E, the airport’s newest terminal inaugurated in 2010.
The service timetable has remained unchanged operating a twice weekly service departing from Malta every Friday and Saturday and from Moscow every Saturday and Sunday.
Sheremetyevo airport is the largest and most modern airport in Russia and one of the top 10 fastest growing airports in Europe. It handles over 31 million passengers and 265,000 aircraft movements every year.
Air Malta said Sheremetyevo provides it with more operational flexibility and fits perfectly with the airline’s strategy to offer customers the best central airports with easy onward connections.
Sheremetyevo Airport is a hub of Air Malta’s code share partner, Aeroflot, the National Airline of Russia. Through this code-sharing Sheremetyevo will offer Air Malta customers over 30 destinations within Russia.
