With a direct flight to Malaga, even a weekend getaway or a week-long vacation without worry is possible.
Even though there is a notable interest by tourism industry in Andalusia for the connection between Malaga and New York to become constant, there is not yet any advance on this. In September the flights between the two cities are not daily anymore and there are only 3 connections weekly.
Nobody enjoys flights stops and boarding more than once on the same trip. With a direct flight to Malaga, even a weekend getaway or a week-long vacation without worry is possible.
So why not visiting Malaga? Are you worrying about the price? Let’s see more details about the flight and if it’s expensive or not…
UPDATE:
Now, without direct flights, the only option for the visitor is coming through any of the hubs connecting with New York, those hubs are at the airports of Madrid, Barcelona, Amsterdam and London.
Will the direct flights come back again? I guess they will, but by now you can still visit us with 1 stop flights.
