Dubai-based airline flydubai has announced that it will start flying regularly to Malta from 12 May, being the first airline to offer a direct route to the United Arab Emirates after Emirates’ COVID-influenced decision to pull out of Malta.
The flights will happen four times per week in a route which also travels to Catania in Sicily with Malta’s ambassador to the UAE, Maria Camilleri Calleja welcoming Malta’s return to their flight map.
Last month’s report by the Central Bank of Malta had stated that establishing previously-lost air connections to major locations such as Dubai are an essential pillar in recovering the economy.
