Malta International Airport is the only airport in Malta and
it serves the whole Maltese Archipelago. It is located between Luqa and Gudja
and occupies the location of the former RAF Luqa. It was completely
re-furbished, becoming fully operational on 25 March 1992. It is still referred
to by locals as Luqa Airport, and sometimes as Valletta Airport
internationally, as it is located 5 km (3.1 mi) southeast of the
Maltese capital Valletta
