Air Malta is assisting a number of passengers booked on low cost and other airlines who have missed their flights due to the blockage of roads caused by the striking transportation workers.
All passengers who have missed their flights due to this strike can present their flight tickets at the Air Malta Check-in counter number 13 at Malta International Airport. The passengers of other airlines are being rerouted on the first available Air Malta service at no charge. Similarly Air Malta passengers will not be charged any rebooking or rerouting fees.
Air Malta’s assistance to the stranded passengers is another confirmation of the airline’s social commitment to Malta and its tourism industry. This support will be extended until further notice.
Air Malta strongly condemns the actions of a number of individuals who are jeopardising the livelihood of thousands of workers in the tourism industry during the peak season. These actions also come at a time when the Maltese Islands have started reaping the benefits of hard work and huge investments done by Air Malta and the MTA in overseas marketing campaigns in these last years.
