Hi Fly Malta is a Maltese charter airline based at Malta International Airport and a subsidiary of the Portuguese Hi Fly.

History

Hi Fly Malta started operations in early 2013 with one Airbus A340-600 formerly operated by Virgin Atlantic with one more pre-owned on order.[1] The airline had also applied for an Air Operators Certificate[2] and planned to start scheduled operations to destinations in North America.[3] During 2015, all of the airlines' aircraft had been stored and in May 2015 the A340-600s were sold to Al Naser Airlines, a front company for Mahan Air.[4]

Hi Fly Malta was reactivated that September with the re-registration of one A340-300 from the parent Portuguese company on the Maltese registry and a second A340-300 was added in early 2016 that had previously flown for Sri Lankan Airlines.[5] Several former Emirates A340-300 frames were added in 2017.

One of the two planes in the fleet at the time was to have been reconfigured for Swiss Space Systems prior to its liquidation, and retains a black livery with the Swiss Space Systems logo on the stabilizer, while all other frames are unmarked except for registration.
