Horrible Experience with a lady near the Ryanair Gate with my 8 year old son. Malta became a horrible country to live in due to third countries nationals discriminating families. Awful! They are rude and when you tell them back they try to ban you from the airplane. Shittiest working personal ever. Maltas Greed has turned the country in a shithole. Cheap people to work for them and we have to deal with their non existent values.

Worst Airport Experience Ever: Detained at the Gate for Wearing Clothes – Yes, Really

On Sept 16, 2025, I was humiliated and harassed at Malta Airport before my Ryanair flight to Stockholm. A female gate agent singled me out, forced me to stuff my travel pillow in my bag (even though Ryanair allows personal items), then accused me of “wearing too many clothes” and threatened to block me from boarding unless I took them off. No law or policy allows staff to tell a passenger how many layers they can wear.
When I asked for her name, she hid her badge, a direct violation of accountability standards. Her supervisor, MARINA, backed her up, shouted at me in front of everyone, and threatened to “escort me out”.
I was effectively detained at the gate for no lawful reason, shamed publicly, and left shaken for my whole trip. This is abuse of authority — not customer service.

This airport allows staff to harass passengers, conceal their identities, and misuse their authority without consequences. If this is how supervisors behave, it signals a toxic culture where passengers’ rights are not respected.

!!!! Travellers beware !!!! : record your interactions, know your rights, and, if possible, avoid Malta Airport entirely. No passenger deserves this treatment.

Worst airport experience ever. Rude and unhelpful staff. Unclear instructions overall. Not particularly organized.

Was returning to Dublin in early June was stand in a queue for 2 hours to go through passport control, nobody to advise what was happening, security staff very unfriendly and unhelpful.
Wouldn't go through that airport again any day soon.

The parking securitys had no education, authentic animals, the worst securitys I sow in all world airport's

Arrived at Malta Airport early for my return flight to Gatwick, so took the opportunity to seek help from the Information Desk to download my boarding pass for a future trip.

They couldn't have been more helpful. I was anxious, but my problem was solved in a jiffy.

Thanks a million!!

We recently flew to Cologne from Malta Airport. We parked our car for 3 days at the Park East Multi-Storey Car Park on the recommendation of the airport parking community. This car park is well lit, has video surveillance and modern, but costs, in my opinion, a bit expensive. That's why I can give Malta Airport only 4 stars. Airport terminal itself is cozy and clean. Bus stops are located directly in front of the terminal building.

Trolley renting machine doesn't work, but one star for personal at info desk to call someone to bring a trolley.
Clean side of terminal is way too cramped for hundreds of passengers waiting their flight. Besides some genius idea to place a open piano in waiting lounge, just add drums and fipple flute for so called talented people to play.
Automatic flush in the toilet works almost as properly and unexpectedly as everything else on the island.

Cosy airport, perhaps a bit small it has all the necesary, the lounge area (lounge key, priority pass, etc) is a 5 stars one.

Malta Airport is a small airport with all neccesary facilities. Passengers must leave the plane via stairs and make a small walk to the terminal. Toilets are modern and clean. Some shops to buy lightning adapters for English outlets.
