OVER 7 million passengers will pass
through Malta International Airport
(MIA) by the end of this year, according
to the company's forecasts.
In the first half of 2023, over 3.4 million
passengers travelled through the airport,
marking a 5.6% increase over 2019 levels.
In April alone, the airport had wel-
comed 700,000 passengers, a milestone
that in 2019 had been reached in June.
Despite inflationary pressures and
higher airfares, demand for travel has
remained high, according to MIA CEO
Alan Borg.
