First flight to Libya seven years later


Medavia - Mediterranean Aviation from Malta, a joint venture of the Spanish airline Air Nostrum and the Libyan Arab Foreign Investment Company, is the first European Union airline to resume scheduled flights to and from Libya. A B737-300 chartered by Greece's Lumiwings, with Malta's minister of economy and industry Silvio Schembri on board, landed on Mitiga airport earlier this week.

 

Afterwards, the airline published the following statement: "The warm welcome at Mitiga airport was greatly appreciated by all present. We would like to take this opportunity to thank our colleagues, partners, and all stakeholders for their hard work in helping us to restart the air link between Malta and Libya." Air traffic between the two countries had been suspended since July 2014. (ah)
