Air Malta has launched a micro site with the major highlights of its 40 year history since starting flying operations on the 1st April 1974.

The micro site lists the national airline’s milestones through an interactive timeline split over the four decades. It also features a video clip with rare footage of major events.

Other features include interesting info-graphics of records achieved by Air Malta, like number of passengers which flew with the airline, number of luggage carried, tonnage of food, pets carried and distances covered. The airline has offered its services to over 49 million passengers, and this year it will be proudly flying its 50 millionth passenger.   

“We are proud to launch this micro site which commemorates our 40th anniversary and tells the story of the airline. Air Malta boasts 40 years of service and looks forward to keep offering quality service to all those who choose to fly with the airline of the Maltese islands,” said Philip Saunders, Chief Commercial Officer.

This launch follows the arrival of an aircraft a few weeks ago which Air Malta repainted in its original livery to celebrate its 40th anniversary.

The site is accessible on www.airmalta.com/40
