What is the cheapest month to fly to Malta? Just a really horrible boarding experience all around.The flight from London Gatwick (LGW) to Malta International Airport (MLA) is just over 3 hours. That boarding process begs for a concession to allow people with children to board first because they will need extra time. Highly challenging if you're traveling with small children. To board, you must leave the gate area, walk downstairs, walk onto the tarmac and walk up stairs to board the plane. The last part is very annoying because none of the gates at NCL (with the exception of 1 used by Emirates) has a jetway. Traveling with a child? Tough luck.you're stuck at the end of the line and board last. Are you in group 3? Doesn't matter.you board with group 5. There is a separate line for groups 1 and 2 but you don't know it until you get to the gate area and agents don't announce/advertise it. However, when you arrive at the gate area, the gate agents file everyone into one long line and everyone boards from one line at one time. NCL doesn't announce the gate of departure until 30 minutes before departure. I'm sure part of that is a directive from the airport that KLM can't change but part of that is due to KLM policy.
