Malta International Airport and the Malta Tourism Authority this afternoon welcomed the announcement by Air France yesterday that it will be starting a scheduled service between Malta and Toulouse from April.

This will be the first time that Air France will be operating a scheduled service to Malta.

Malta Airport CEO Austin Calleja said it was significant that a legacy carrier like Air France had decided to put Malta in its network. This tied in with the efforts of MIA and the Malta Tourism Authority to imrove Malta’s accessibility.

MTA CEO, Josef Formosa Gauci said Air France's commencement of scheduled operations to Malta would further enhance the Maltese islands' presence in the French market.  The move also reflected a certain confidence in Destination Malta as a viable route for a wide cross section of carriers, including one of Europe's leading legacy airlines, Air France.
