The ongoing volcanic activity at Mount Etna is creating a highly unpredictable and rapidly changing operating environment for Catania Airport and the airlines serving it.
KM Malta Airlines is working closely with Catania Airport and the relevant authorities and will continue to monitor the situation closely. However, volcanic activity, prevailing winds and weather conditions can change quickly, and operational restrictions may be introduced or extended at short notice.
We fully appreciate the inconvenience and uncertainty that these cancellations may cause our passengers. The safety of our passengers and crew remains our overriding priority.
Affected passengers will be contacted directly with further information regarding their flight and the available options. Our operational teams will continue working closely with Catania Airport and the relevant authorities to maximise every opportunity to safely resume scheduled services.
