London Heathrow Airport has this week announced initial schedule adjustment requirements for all airlines for the travel period 15th – 24th July, Air Malta has said.

Air Malta warned that further schedule adjustments are expected to be communicated in the coming weeks.

These enforced changes require airlines to immediately stop selling seats for all flights departing London Heathrow during this period and in addition airlines have been tasked to cancel specific flights on specific dates of departure.

Air Malta said that it has been advised that its afternoon flight to the airport, KM103, will not be allowed to depart London Heathrow at it’s usual time of 19:30 on the evening of Saturday 16th and Wednesday 20th July.

These two flights, along with the associated KM102, Malta to London Heathrow flight, will still operate to/from London Heathrow, however they will operate one hour earlier than previously planned on both dates.

The airline said that all other Air Malta flights on London Heathrow are expected to operate as per the published schedule.
