Easyjet launch twice weekly flight to Malta

Malta has become easyJet’s 20th destination from Belfast. The low cost airline is introducing a new route from Belfast International Airport, with flights going on sale on this Thursday, July 8.

The new service will start on February 11 next year with a Tuesday flight leaving Belfast at 08.00, and one on Saturdays at 13.35.

The flight times are 4hrs 05mins outbound and 3hrs 50mins inbound.

Ali Gayward, easyJet’s UK Commercial Manager, said: “We are delighted to be able to add this exciting new destination to the already attractive range of flights we offer.

“Malta is often described as an ‘open-air museum’ and has a rich history that is evident in its stunning architecture. The island is famous for it clear blue waters and, for today’s visitors, there is the obvious appeal of dry, warm summers.

“Malta is a very welcome addition to easyJet’s existing hotspot destinations like Alicante, Faro, Ibiza, Malaga and Palma.”
