A prestigious new outlet now enhances the restructured entrance to Malta International Airport currently undergoing extensive refurbishment.

Samsonite, the world leader in innovative travel solutions, is the new franchise store and the first Samsonite franchise outlet on the islands.

The product selection serves every segment of the market. In fact the Samsonite brand serves both the middle- and up-market customer segments and meets the discerning needs of the luxury market.

Furthermore, another world-renowned brand continues to strengthen its image at MIA. Hard Rock Café, which was first opened in the departures area of the airport in Summer 2003 as the first Hard Rock Café ever to operate in an airport terminal, has now been extended once again after having evolved from a small 12 square metre shop selling Hard Rock memorabilia to a café-bar the following year.

The elegantly refurbished catering establishment now boasts a 265 square metre area, seats 96 patrons and offers an extensive range of food, beverages and Hard Rock memorabilia.

This new shop, which is in the Schengen Departures area, is run by Sea Port Franchising and will operate 24 hours a day seven days a week.
