A Journey from the Fjords to the Fortress Island
The route from Oslo to Malta is more than just a flight; it is a voyage from the cool, crisp air of the North to the warm, honey-colored stone of the Mediterranean’s most historic archipelago. For Norwegians, Malta offers a unique combination: it guarantees the sun and sea we crave during the darker months, but it also delivers a depth of history and culture that few beach destinations can match. At Ready2Go, we are your dedicated local partner for this journey. We specialize in connecting Oslo with the stunning islands of Malta, Gozo, and Comino, ensuring your trip is as seamless and secure as it is memorable.
Why Choose Ready2Go for Your Maltese Holiday?
Malta is a favored destination for Norwegian travelers seeking variety—where you can dive in the morning, explore a medieval dungeon at lunch, and dine by the sea at sunset. While many international sites sell tickets, Ready2Go offers a service built on Norwegian values of trust, safety, and transparency.
- Local Security & Standards: We operate under strict Norwegian consumer protection regulations. When you book with us, you are supported by a local team that understands your needs. In an ever-changing travel landscape, having a partner based in Norway provides peace of mind that anonymous global aggregators cannot match.
- Optimized Connections: Flight schedules to Malta can vary significantly between summer peak season and winter off-peak. Our intelligent search platform filters for the most logical itineraries. We highlight seasonal direct flights when available and the most efficient connections via major European hubs year-round, ensuring you spend less time in transit and more time by the pool.
- Transparent Pricing: We believe in honest communication. The price you see at the start is the price you pay. We strip away hidden service fees, ensuring you can budget for your holiday without stress.
The Journey: Oslo (OSL) to Malta (MLA)
Connecting Norway to the Southern Mediterranean is a comfortable journey to a completely different climate zone.
- Departure from Gardermoen: Your trip begins at Oslo Airport (OSL). As a major international gateway, OSL offers excellent facilities. We recommend using the Flytoget airport express for a punctual arrival. During the winter months, the anticipation of leaving the snow behind adds a special excitement to the departure lounge experience.
- Flight Duration: A direct flight (often available seasonally) takes approximately 4 hours. If traveling via a connection in central Europe, the journey is still efficient, often allowing for a smooth transfer.
- Arrival in Luqa: You will land at Malta International Airport (MLA), located in Luqa. It is the only airport serving the archipelago. It is small, modern, and incredibly efficient. Because the island is compact, you are rarely more than 20–30 minutes away from your hotel or resort upon exiting the terminal.
Destination: Malta – Small Island, Massive Character
Malta packs an incredible amount of diversity into a small footprint. It is an open-air museum surrounded by the deepest blue waters in the Mediterranean.
- Valletta: The Capital of Culture
For culture seekers, the capital city of Valletta is a UNESCO World Heritage site and a masterpiece of the Baroque style. Walking its steep, grid-like streets reveals palaces, museums, and the breathtaking St. John’s Co-Cathedral. It is a city built by knights, and the history is palpable on every corner. - The Blue Lagoon and Nature
For sun-seekers and nature lovers, a boat trip to the Blue Lagoon on the smaller island of Comino is essential. The crystal-clear turquoise water is world-famous. Divers from Norway also flock here to explore the underwater caves and World War II shipwrecks that dot the coastline. - St. Julian’s and Sliema
If you are looking for vibrant nightlife, shopping, and dining, the coastal towns of St. Julian’s and Sliema offer a modern contrast to the historic capital. Here, you can enjoy fresh seafood al fresco while watching the local fishing boats (Luzzu) bob in the harbor.
Practical Travel Tips for Norwegians
- Language: One of the great advantages for Norwegians visiting Malta is that English is an official language. Communication is effortless, making it easy to ask for directions or order food.
- Driving: Be aware that Malta drives on the left side of the road, a legacy of British rule. If you rent a car to explore the quieter corners of the island, take extra care at roundabouts.
- Power Plugs: Malta uses the British-style three-pin plug (Type G). We strongly recommend packing an adapter, as your standard Norwegian plugs will not fit the wall outlets.
- Weather: Summers can be intensely hot. For those sensitive to high heat, the "shoulder seasons" of April–May and September–October offer perfect temperatures for hiking and sightseeing.
