Malta is broadly open and functioning normally for leisure travel right now. International tourist arrivals are rising, and official advisories are mostly level 1 with no current signs of conflict, airspace closure, or sanctions-related payment disruption. The main traveler issues are routine: petty theft, occasional nightlife problems, and weather-related disruption from wind and rough seas.
