Air Malta increases its commitment on Brussels

After 43 years of commitment to its Malta-Brussels-Malta route, Air Malta continues to increase capacity with up to double daily flights. This added frequency is intended to support the increased demand of air travel between the European capital and Malta.

This summer Air Malta plans to continue increasing seat capacity on the Brussels route by over 25% or another 20,000 seats over the same period last year.

This is the fifth year in a row that Air Malta has increased flights and seats on this route. Last year Air Malta carried 84% of all the traffic between Malta and Brussels. Thanks to this increased capacity and growth on this route, more and more conference organisers are making Malta their destination of choice.

This June there will be a number of important EU Commission conferences with over 2,000 delegates converging from all over Europe to Malta.

On top of the planned scheduled services, Air Malta has pro- grammed three additional flights to/from Brussels to facilitate access for these delegates and to offer even more travel opportunities to the travelling public.

Paul Sies, Air Malta’s chief Commercial officer commented: “It’s great to see how Air Malta can offer flexibility to the hotel and the conference and incentive industry of Malta, and create new revenue streams for the island by adding more flights when required. The Maltese airline is actively looking for new revenue opportunities, and together with the cooperation of stakeholders, it offers flexibility by adjusting its network capacity when and where needed. It just shows that Air Malta is more than an airline, and is more of an extension of the infrastructure of Malta. It is the only airline truly committed to Malta and the Maltese.”

The additional flights are for sale now through all the Air Malta sales channels including www.airmalta.com and travel agents all over the world.
