Easyjet and Ryanair have announced that they hope to start flights to Malta from Luton and Dublin within the next few weeks and this may further boost the Maltese property market. Maltabuyproperty report that over 30% of residential property sales made though their associates in Malta came from UK and Irish buyers.

Ray Woods of Maltabuyproperty said: "The news that Ryanair and Easyjet are competing to launch new services to Malta is very welcome as it not only impacts of the price of flights - but also the availability of flights which is very important."
