The Republic of Malta is one of Europe’s smallest and most densely populated countries. The country is well connected to Europe and North Africa with all flights arriving to Malta International Airport, which serves as the hub and base for the Maltese national carrier Air Malta. Air Malta has several codeshare agreements connecting Malta with most of the world. 

Malta International Airport is a publicly listed company which operates the airport and controls air navigation services, while the Civil Aviation Directorate serves as Malta’s civil aviation regulatory authority.

Europe’s airlines press European Commission to ensure Single European Sky targets are met

13-Oct-11 11:54 AM

There are few subjects that Europe’s airlines can agree on, but the lamentable state of the European air traffic control system is one of them. This week, industry bodies representing all sectors of the European air transport market blasted the efforts of European member states and their air navigation service providers (ANSPs) on reducing costs and increasing efficiency for falling short of where they should be.

Air traffic inefficiency and the high costs associated with Europe’s patchwork air traffic management (ATM) system are estimated to cost the European aviation industry between EUR4 billion and EUR5 billion p/a. The delays and inefficient routings punish both passengers and airlines, increasing flight times and distances and driving up fuel burn and greenhouse gas emissions, a particularly galling situation given the entry of aviation into the EU Emissions Trading Scheme next year.

Coupled with "man-made" events, such as the political unrest in the Middle East and North Africa, at what point will private operators decide that airport investment under such circumstances is not worth the risk?

Airports struggle with life after Ryanair

11-Nov-10 3:41 PM

Ryanair has been cancelling or suspending services at a wide range of airports across Europe, including in countries where it is growing. Is there any discernible strategy here or is it no more than coincidence, as a result of too many disagreements with airports? What future prospects are there for smaller airports when Ryanair decides to quit?
