Air Malta has expanded its web and mobile check-in services and is now offering these services at 17 international airports.

With immediate effect Air Malta passengers will now be able to check-in on web and mobile at most destinations up to one hour prior to the scheduled time of departure.

Passengers using these services can start to check-in for flights 24 hours prior departure, choose their seat on board the aircraft and receive their bar coded boarding pass immediately.

The service is now available at the following airports: Malta, London Heathrow and Gatwick, Vienna, Athens, Sofia, Frankfurt, Berlin, Hamburg, Dusseldorf, Catania, Zurich, Lyon, Geneva, Manchester, Moscow Domodedovo and Marseille. In the coming weeks these services will also be offered from four other airports: Rome, Milan, Paris Orly and Charles de Gaulle.

"Through services such as web and mobile check-in we are facilitating airport formalities to assist passengers to save time and avoid airport queues. Such services offer passengers the flexibility to be able to check-in while travelling or from the comfort of home or office. We are currently working services to our customers", said Matina Massa, Chief Information Officer at Air Malta.
