-MLA is the only airport in Malta. It has two runways. Runway 14/32, the longer one at 3.5 km, is normally used for commercial passenger traffic while 06/24 (length 2.4 km) tends to be used by light aircraft. MLA offers a variety of aircraft types and liveries to the spotter. However, the volume of traffic is limited and even in summer, when it is at its peak, there are significant inactive periods during the day. Photographers who are considering a trip to Malta should consult the flight schedules in the airport's official website, which are available two weeks in advance, to decide the day and time of their visit to the airport. That said, MLA is a very spotter-friendly airport both in terms of the availability of good vantage-points for photography and in the sense that photography is officially tolerated.
