It’s been a busy first half of the year for Malta Airport! The local airport has seen an increase of 5.9 per cent, translating into a whopping 3.2 million passengers when compared to the same stretch last year.
Malta Airport CEO said in a press conference that the airport’s performance so far confirms the company’s predictions of 7.2 million passenger movements by the end of 2019.
And that’s not all! Record passenger numbers were registered every month of this year so far, with a 10.5 per cent increase in traffic, with April being the fastest-growing month, followed by June which registered an upturn of 8.8 per cent.
“The launch of three new routes this October, the extension of 17 routes from summer into the upcoming winter season, and increased flight frequencies on several routes, allow us to look ahead with confidence,” said Mr Borg in a statement published by Malta Airport.
