The low-cost carrier SkyUp MT from Malta will initially operate only charter flights for the European offices of the tour operator Join UP!

Now the tour operator already has offices in Moldova, Estonia, Latvia, Lithuania and plans to expand its activities to Romania, Poland, Slovakia and the Czech Republic.
