KM Malta Airlines is set to replace Air Malta on 31. March 2024 as the new flag carrier of Malta. The new airline will take over the current Air Malta fleet and continue to use its branding. The Maltese government hopes the new trimmed carrier will be profitable and can be offered for partial privatization. KM Malta Airlines will be a full service carrier offering two classes of service on board its A320neo aircraft. A flexible Business Class cabin can be configured in the first 9 rows, blocking the middle seat for extra space and comfort. The initial network is to cover routes to over 16 major cities in Europe.
