Travelling abroad to study has never been so cost-effective following the launch of Air Malta's student offer.

This offer, entitling students to a total of 50kg worth of luggage for free, even when travelling on its lowest fares, was promoted during the freshers' activities currently being organised at the University of Malta and MCAST.

Air Malta staff present at these events explained the perks of the offer and showed students step by step how one can apply online.

The airline's staff also explained the airline's flight schedule and route network and distributed branded mouse mats, sun visors, pens and stickers.

This promotion was very well received by students. In the last two weeks following the launch of this offer the airline gas received several enquiries.

The initiative is available for all students who are currently pursuing a full time educational programme in Malta or abroad.

To register from this offer students are invited to visit http://www.airmalta.com/we-caremore/student-s-offer-extra-bag-of-checked-in-luggage and complete an online form at least five working days before travelling.
