Malta Airlines has announced the addition of further additional flights and increased capacity following exceptionally strong demand to travel to Malta for voting in the forthcoming General Election, the airline said Wednesday.

During the first two days of bookings for election travel, the airline has already booked over 1,000 return passengers to travel to Malta to participate in the upcoming General Election.

Approximately 90% of all bookings made so far originate from Brussels and London.

In response to demand, KM Malta Airlines has secured the necessary airport slots and will operate the following additional services:

London Gatwick: • 20th May • 21st May • 22nd May • 24th May • 31st May

Brussels: • 21st May • 22nd May • 25th May

These additional flights will provide increased capacity for voters intending to travel to Malta for early voting on 23 May, as well as for those planning to return shortly afterwards.

Seats remain available across a range of other dates for passengers wishing to participate in early voting on 23 May, or vote on Election Day, 30 May, and return to their place of residence thereafter. The special election fares are available across all scheduled routes operated by KM Malta Airlines, offering eligible voters flexibility to travel from across the airline's European network.
