Qatar Airways resumes flights to Malta

Airline will operate four weekly Doha-Malta flights from July 2025

Qatar Airways is resuming its service to Malta, with four weekly flights from 2 July 2025.

This move will increase connectivity and expand Qatar Airways’ network to nearly 50 destinations across Europe.

Wednesday and Friday flights will depart Doha Hamad International Airport (DOH) at 02:05, arriving in Malta International Airport (MLA) at 06:45. The return service will leave MLA at 10:15, landing in DOH at 16:20 local time. Monday and Saturday flights will depart DOH at 08:45, arriving in MLA at 13:25. The return service will leave MLA at 17:05, landing in Sharjah at 23:10.

Passengers can travel with the World’s Best Airline (according to Skytrax in 2024 ) to the Mediterranean island nation and visit the ancient fortified city of Valletta, a UNESCO World Heritage Site, and sister islands, Gozo and Comino.

The capital city Valletta features Baroque architecture, and winding streets lined with atmospheric cafes and restaurants. With 4,000 years of history, the old capital, Mdina, has been used as a location for many films and popular TV show Game of Thrones. Malta’s Fort Ricasoli also features extensively in the recently released Gladiator 2.

Arriving Q1 2026, the Hard Rock Hotel Malta at St George’s Bay will feature 480 rooms and suites with balcony views of the Maltese seaside. 

The reinstating of this route by the airline also means travellers from Malta can benefit from Qatar Airways’ extensive network of more than 170 global destinations.

“Qatar Airways is delighted to announce the resumption of our flights to Malta, which marks a vibrant addition to our robust European network,” said Qatar Airways Group Chief Executive Officer, Engr Badr Mohammed Al-Meer.

“From historic and cultural sites and attractions, sun and sea activities, to cities serving as locations for Hollywood movies and TV shows, Malta offers an exciting blend of memorable experiences for travellers, all set against the backdrop of the azure Mediterranean Sea.”
