In the first three weeks of July, around 84,000 arriving and departing passengers passed through Malta International Airport.

MIA stressed that every precautionary measure has been taken to ensure that, whatever the reason for their trip, travelling guests can start it or end it with the safest and most seamless airport experience.

With everyone’s cooperation remaining crucial to maintaining a safe environment that allows travellers to feel at ease, the airport is reminding passengers of the important information to make note of.

Passengers departing from Malta are reminded to check with their airline whether any forms need to be filled in and submitted ahead of or immediately upon arrival at their destination.

Those arriving in Malta, will need to complete two forms – which can be downloaded here – prior to landing. Arriving passengers are reminded to hand the filled-in forms to the crew on board the aircraft or follow the crew’s instructions on where to deposit them.

MIA stated that “if you feel unwell on the day of your travels, act responsibly and postpone your trip to a later date. If you are in good health, be at the airport 2.5 hours before your flight to go through the necessary checks and processes at an unhurried pace.”

Remember to pack enough face masks for the journey in hand luggage. Please note that certain airlines are only allowing the use of face masks on board aircraft, and not permitting the wearing of face shields or visors.

Practise social distancing and good hand hygiene as indicated by the signage and floor markings around the terminal and instructed by the team. Due to distancing guidelines, waiting times at certain points of the journey may be slightly longer.

While arriving passengers are now exiting the terminal building from an exit dedicated to passengers only, family and friends can wait in the Welcomers’ Hall and follow the status of a particular flight on the information screens. Two hours of free parking are being given to visitors who use Malta International Airport’s parking facilities.
