Malta's Air Malta ceased operations on 30 March 2024 due to EU State-aid rules, with KM Malta Airlines taking over as the flag carrier.
Malta's national airline, Air Malta, ceased operations on March 30, 2024, ending a 50-year run. The European Commission refused to allow the Maltese government to save the ailing airline through a €300 million cash injection, citing EU State-aid rules. The new KM Malta Airlines will take over as the flag carrier for the Maltese islands, operating a smaller number of routes and with a leaner staff complement.
