## Malta Private Jet Charter Flights

Malta is only about 17 miles long, so as you descend toward Luqa, a panoramic view of most of the island immediately opens up before you, and to the northeast, in the harbor, you can see the walled city of Valletta. Passengers on private jets flying to Malta for business purposes arrive in St. Julian’s and Sliema to use the yacht berths at the Grand Harbor marina in Birgu, as well as to visit Mdina, a walled city situated atop a hill in the center of the island. Every October, the Rolex Middle Sea Race sets sail from Grand Harbor.

Malta International Airport (MLA) is the only airport in Malta; its FBOs include Executive Aviation Malta and DC Aviation Malta. The nearest alternatives are Catania (CTA) and Comiso (CIY) in Sicily, which are a short flight north. Valletta is compact enough to explore on foot in a single afternoon, and from the Upper Barrakka Gardens, there is a direct view across the harbor to the “Three Cities.”

## What Does a Private Jet to or from Malta Cost?

The cost of chartering a private jet to or from Malta ranges from $3,500 to $18,000 per hour. These hourly rates vary depending on aircraft category, model, year of manufacture, onboard amenities, flight time, and itinerary. They include aircraft-specific costs, such as the aircraft, maintenance, crew, insurance, and fuel.

## Private Jet Charter Destinations in Malta

Malta is small, but its business districts, harbors, and islands each bring their own private jet traffic through Malta International Airport throughout the year.

- **Valletta:** Valletta is Malta’s capital and the seat of government, with ministries, embassies, and the Parliament building inside the old city walls. Private jet travelers come for government and diplomatic meetings, for legal and financial advisers based in the capital, and for St. John’s Co-Cathedral, home to Caravaggio’s *The Beheading of Saint John the Baptist*. The whole city is a UNESCO World Heritage Site and sits about 20 minutes from the airport.
- **St. Julian’s and Sliema:** This stretch of coast north of Valletta is Malta’s main commercial and hotel district. Many of the island’s iGaming, fintech, and financial services firms have offices around St. Julian’s, Sliema, and Gżira, which brings executives and investors in for board meetings and site visits. The Portomaso tower and marina are the center of the area’s business and hotel activity.
- **Birgu and the Three Cities:** Birgu, Senglea, and Cospicua face Valletta across the Grand Harbour. Private aviation demand here comes from yacht owners and guests, since Grand Harbour Marina in Birgu berths superyachts close to the airport. Each October, the Rolex Middle Sea Race starts from the Grand Harbour.
- **Mdina and Rabat:** Mdina is Malta’s walled former capital on a hilltop in the center of the island, with Rabat just outside its gates. Travelers come for quiet stays inside the walls, private dinners, and weddings, and the drive from the airport is about 20 minutes.
- **Gozo:** Gozo is Malta’s second island, with farmhouse villas, the Citadel in Victoria, and beaches such as Ramla Bay. There is no runway for jets on Gozo, so private jet passengers land at Malta International and continue by car and ferry from Ċirkewwa or by fast ferry from Valletta.

## Private Jet Airports near Malta

There is one airport in Malta, and the nearest alternatives are two airports in Sicily.

- **Malta International Airport (MLA):** 5 miles southwest of Valletta, in the town of Luqa, which is a 15–20-minute drive. The main runway is 11,627 feet long, and the second runway, 7,799 feet long, is located almost at a right angle to it.
- **Catania Airport (CTA):** Approximately 115 miles north of Malta as the crow flies, in Sicily. Catania Airport serves Taormina and the eastern coast of Sicily.
- **Comiso Airport (CIY):** Approximately 80 miles north of Malta as the crow flies, in southern Sicily. Comiso is the closest airport to the Baroque cities of Ragusa and Noto, and a ferry from nearby Pozzallo takes passengers to Valletta in less than two hours.

Passengers on private jets at Malta International Airport use the services of specialized FBOs, including Executive Aviation Malta, which partners with ExecuJet, and DC Aviation Malta.

- **Lounges:** Executive Aviation Malta operates 24 hours a day, seven days a week, and features a VIP lounge; its meet-and-greet staff assists passengers with customs and passport control. Malta is part of the Schengen Area, so passengers from Rome, Nice, or Geneva pass through passport control without delay, while passengers from London go through it upon arrival.
- **Ground transportation:** We’ll arrange for a car with a driver to meet you at the FBO. Valletta is a 15–20-minute drive away, and St. Julian’s is located a little further north along the coast.
- **Aircraft Services:** Fueling is available at Malta International Airport, and the airport accommodates business jets of any size. In the summer, we ask the operator to cool the cabin before you board.
- **Concierge Services:** We can book rooms at The Phoenicia Malta near the city gates of Valletta or at the Rosselli Hotel on Merchants Street, as well as arrange catering for your flight home. Given the Rolex Middle Sea Race taking place in October, we recommend booking your rooms in advance.
