TAORMINA 2022
Idyllicly perched on a rocky promontory high above the sea, Taormina has been the most popular tourist destination in Sicily for a couple of hundred of years, ever since it became an integral part of the Grand Tour. Beautifully restored mediaeval buildings, breathtaking views around every corner and a giddy network of winding streets strewn with shops, bars and restaurants make for a perfect holiday spot. The main attraction is, without doubt, the theatre. Now home to all manner of events, including plays, fashion shows, concerts, and cinema festivals, the Teatro Greco, as its name suggests, started its life in the 3rd Century BC hosting performances of works by Aeschylus, Sophocles, Euripides and Aristophanes. Originally quite small, it was enlarged by the Romans to accommodate their own particular brand of theatrical extravaganza. The views from the theatre are spectacular, taking in a (usually) smoking Mount Etna and the Bay of Naxos down below.

Connecting the island to more than 35 major cities across Europe and the Mediterranean. working with partner airlines, and offering convenient connections to many more destinations in North America, North Africa and the Middle East, Airmalta has been providing a genuine Maltese experience to all its passengers. THE PAST 1974 proved to be a momentous year for our country. Airmalta commenced operations on 1 April, and Malta declared itself a republic later in the year. The setting up of Air Malta was one of the first signs of a young nation fostering its identity and finding a new international voice. By creating reliable air links to and from key European cities, Airmalta was able to support the economic and cultural development of the Islands. As standard bearer for the nation, their remit has always been that of an ambassador for the Maltese Islands. Merħba AIR MALTA THE AIRLINE OF THE MALTESE ISLANDS.

TAORMINA 2022
THE PRESENT Modern day Malta is a cosmopolitan country which blends time-honoured Mediterranean culture with a spirited, contemporary vibe. Just as the country has changed, so has the ailrine. It embarked on a major review of strategy and operations. As part of the process, Airmalta has in fact launched a fresh brand identity. A colourful new livery which can be seen across the fleet. The new look is more than skin deep. It reflects accurately a more pro- active role as the destination airline of the Maltese Islands; a company dedicated 100 per cent to serving the Islands’ visitors and residents. The mission is even more ambitious, the airline aim to become recognised as one of the world’s leading destination airlines. THE FUTURE More than ever, Airmalta is at the heart of the Islands and its people echo a shared sense of optimism for the future. The daily mission is to work together in achieving exceptional standards of travel experiences. The pride in doing a good job for customers is key. The future lies in making it even easier to discover the Maltese Islands and to return home with an airline that has a genuine calling in serving your interests and those of Malta.

TAORMINA 2022
This is Sicily at its most authentic.
Taormina is centred around its main thoroughfare, Corso Umberto I. At the beginning of this charming street is perhaps the greatest symbol of Taormina’s long varied history: Palazzo Corvaja. Its architecture is a sublime mix of Arab, Norman and Gothic and includes battlements, mullioned windows and shady courtyards. The Arabs built the original tower as part of the town’s defences. Its cubic structure, which is typical of many Arab towers of this period, is thought to have evoked that of the Ka’aba in Mecca. In the 13th Century, the tower was enlarged by the Normans who added a wing containing a hall and some wonderful artwork. The Spanish followed suit, adding another wing at the beginning of the 15th Century to house the Sicilian Parliament. Its present name recalls one of the town’s most important noble families who owned the building from 1538 to 1945.
