Do you remember it? This old Air Malta ad is giving us major nostalgia!
“Your old friends have a new airline.”

Jillian Mallia

There’s nothing like old ads to bring back nostalgic vibes and to also show us just how old we’re getting. This Air Malta ad dating back to the ‘70s is doing just that!

“Enjoy the sunshine, winter and summer on your ideal holiday island of Malta. Prices are attractive, and it’s not too far to fly. The great way to travel is by our own airline: Air Malta.”

"Our daily flights from London Heathrow take just htree hours, nonstop, bu toomy Boeing 720B’s Departure times are planned for your maximum convenience. And the friendly Maltese service makes you feel your holiday has begun the moment you step aboard. There are also direct flights from Manchester on Sundays, and Birmingham on Thursdays," the ad continued.

"For information about reservations, contact your travel agent, or telephone Air Malta. And we’ll send one of our Boeings for you." Don't mind if you do!
