When to fly

Demand on this route climbs during the summer school holidays and dips when the weather turns cooler across the islands. September stands out as the cheapest month to travel, offering milder temperatures before the autumn winds arrive. Booking ahead of peak holiday periods typically secures better scheduling options, while midweek departures often align with lighter airport traffic.

Airlines and what to expect

Some operators connect passengers through London or Amsterdam hubs before continuing south, a routing choice that extends travel time but frequently bundles checked bags and seat assignments into the ticket price for BA CityFlyer, British Airways, KLM Cityhopper, and KLM Royal Dutch Airlines. Direct services are run by Ryanair UK, Jet2, Ryanair, Easyjet, Malta Air, and Emerald Airlines, which keep fares lean but charge extra for priority boarding and hold luggage. You can choose between these point-to-point flights or the longer hub-and-spoke alternatives depending on how much comfort you want included upfront.

Arriving — Malta

Stepping off the plane at Luqa places you just a short drive from Valletta, with regular bus links and taxi ranks outside the terminal building. The transfer feels straightforward regardless of how late your flight lands, since local transport runs consistently through the evening. You will notice clear signage directing passengers toward ground transportation, making it easy to reach your accommodation without navigating unfamiliar streets.
