Flights diverted to Catania due to power outage

Due to Enemalta’s power outage and some technical difficulties, Malta International Airport was forced to temporarily close all activity within the Aerodrome tonight. This was a safety precaution as the runway was closed to safeguard the wellbeing of all our passengers. 

The following incoming flights were diverted to Catania: Vueling flight VY 8744 from Barcelona, Norwegian flight DY 6530 from Copenhagen, Airmalta flight KM 4293 from Glasgow, and Ryanair flight FR 9874 from Bari. 

"Our operations at the airport have now resumed as normal. Passengers are advised to visit www.maltairport.com for updates on their flights. We would like to apologise for any inconvenience caused," MIA said.
