United Travel has successfully concluded negotiations with Air Malta for the acquisition of Flyaway Tours.
Over the years Flyaway Tours has become an established brand and a household name among the local travel trade and public alike.
The
business not only offers holiday packages on Air Malta's network but
also beyond.
United Travel and Air Malta are working together to ensure a seamless transition and have undertaken that all existing passenger and trade bookings will be honoured. Both parties are committed to work in partnership so as to continue offering and delivering competitive travel experiences and products that are synonymous with the Flyaway Tours brand.
Iain R. Tonna, Managing Director of United Travel said, "We are delighted to have acquired Flyaway Tours, which we see as a perfect fit in our overall strategy to consolidate our position in the local travel and tourism industry. We look forward to working closely with Air Malta and other partners to further develop the brand’s potential and are already working on new, competitive and exciting offers. We will also continue to support local travel agents as our key distribution channel."
Commenting on this development Peter Davies, Chief Executive of Air Malta said, " We have followed a robust and rigorous process of competitive bidding, to ensure the highest levels of corporate governance whilst maximising value for Air Malta. We look forward to an excellent ongoing partnership with Flyaway Tours."
