Otherwise, the average flight time is much the same as those from Sydney and Brisbane. All Malta flights land at the island’s only airport, which is in Gudja, just to the southwest of the capital city of Malta, Valletta.

Question 9

Can you get direct flights to Malta from Australia?

Accepted Answer

Currently, there are no non-stop flights from Australia to Malta, but you’ll be able to find plenty of flights with stopovers. Two-stop flights are actually faster because of the longer stopover times on one-stop routes. So if you want to get there as quickly as possible, one of the quickest flights available leaves from Melbourne Tullamarine Airport (MEL) on Qatar Airways. It flies first to Doha International Airport (DOH) and then to Larnaca Airport (LCA) in Cyprus, where you’ll either change to Cyprus Airways or Emirates to fly the rest of the way to Malta International Airport (MLA) in Gudja. This flight takes about 20h and 15min. The fastest flights from Brisbane take about 20h and 40min, either on the same route or going via Amman Airport (AMM) or Istanbul Airport (IST). When flying from Sydney Kingsford Smith Airport (SYD), Qatar offers the shortest flight, flying every day from Sydney to Larnaca and then transferring to Emirates or Cyprus Airways for the rest of the journey. This route takes about 21h.

Accepted Answer

The easiest city to reach from Malta Airport in Gudja is Valletta. You can take a Malta Public Transport bus to get there in about 30min. If you hire a car or catch a taxi, the drive will only take about 10min. Valletta, while being the capital city, isn’t the largest city in Malta. The most populous city on the island is Saint Paul’s Bay on the north coast, otherwise known as San Pawl il-Baħar. You reach it by bus in about 45min from Gudja or drive there in just a tad over 20min. Sliema is another major urban centre in Malta. It’s about a 30-minute bus ride from the airport, going via Valletta. You can also easily visit Saint Julian’s, which is on the way to Pembroke, another major town.
