Qatar Airways will launch direct services to Valletta, Malta, starting June 4th, marking the airline's first gateway to Malta and the latest addition to its rapidly-expanding European network. The Valletta route will be served with an A320 aircraft, with daily services in summer and four-times-weekly flights in winter.

Valletta, a city with a rich historical and cultural past, offers much for visitors to explore, including some of Europe's finest baroque architecture as well as many museums.
