KM Malta Airlines is proud to announce that it has successfully obtained its Approved Training Organisation (ATO) certification from Transport Malta’s Civil Aviation Directorate (TM-CAD). This achievement completes the airline’s full suite of operational certifications, further strengthening its capabilities as Malta’s national carrier.
The ATO certification ensures that KM Malta Airlines can independently conduct training for its pilots and crew, maintaining the highest standards of safety, quality, and operational excellence.

This milestone was made possible through the dedication and hard work of the airline’s training department, led by Captain Eric Cordina, Nominated Person Crew Training.
Declan Keller, Chief Operations Officer and Accountable Manager at KM Malta Airlines, expressed his appreciation for the team’s efforts:
“Securing our ATO certification is a crucial step in our operational journey. It ensures that we can provide in-house training tailored to our operational needs, enhancing efficiency and maintaining the highest professional standards. Moreover, it allows us to offer high-quality training solutions to third-party operators, strengthening Malta’s position as a center of excellence in aviation training. I want to extend my sincere thanks to the entire
team that contributed to this important achievement.”
David Curmi, Executive Chairman of KM Malta Airlines, highlighted the significance of this milestone for the airline’s long-term strategy:
“The acquisition of our ATO certification reflects KM Malta Airlines’ commitment to operational excellence and continuous improvement. It reinforces our ability to develop and train our crew internally while also positioning us as a key provider of training services to pilots for other operators. This is an important step forward in strengthening our capabilities and supporting the wider aviation community. I commend the entire team for
their dedication in securing this achievement.”
