A new service flying directly from Glasgow Airport to Malta has been launched.
The Ryanair service, which operates on a Tuesday and a Saturday, took off for the first time on April 1.
The new addition represents the seventh route the airline has run from Glasgow Airport, joining Alicante, Brussels, Dublin, Krakow, Malaga, and Wrocław.
Mark Beveridge, managing director, Glasgow Airport said: “We are delighted to welcome Ryanair’s new direct service to Malta, which marks the airline’s seventh route from Glasgow Airport.

“Ryanair’s continued expansion at Glasgow Airport is a testament to the strong demand for international travel from our passengers.”
Why are you making commenting on The Herald only available to subscribers?
It should have been a safe space for informed debate, somewhere for readers to discuss issues around the biggest stories of the day, but all too often the below the line comments on most websites have become bogged down by off-topic discussions and abuse.
heraldscotland.com is tackling this problem by allowing only subscribers to comment.
We are doing this to improve the experience for our loyal readers and we believe it will reduce the ability of trolls and troublemakers, who occasionally find their way onto our site, to abuse our journalists and readers.

That is invaluable.
We are making the subscriber-only change to support our valued readers, who tell us they don't want the site cluttered up with irrelevant comments, untruths and abuse.
