The winter season 2025/2026 begins at the end of October for airlines at Malaga airport. In general, in winter season the number of routes and frequencies is reduced compared to the summer. Even so, the popular Costa del Sol destination will have more than a hundred active routes. In fact, the offer of flights to Malaga in winter increases every year. Find out why!
Why fly to Malaga in winter
The high season with excellent temperatures in Malaga is not only three summer months, but also from April to almost November. There is a considerable increase of travellers in the first three months and the last three months of the year.
That is to say, coming to Malaga on holiday is becoming less and less seasonal.
More and more travellers with flexible time prefer coming outside of the high season. Thus they bypass higher prices, very high occupancy and, last but not least, very high temperatures.
During the last winter season, Malaga airport broke its record in February, registering almost 1,5 million passengers.
February is one of the most critical and unpleasant months in the northern hemisphere. Thus it is not surprising that many opt for a getaway to the sun.
Regarding international traffic: The markets with the highest demand are the British, Dutch, German, Italian and French.
If you want to travel this winter, you will have it quite easy. The international airport of Malaga, despite being low season, will be practically brimming with activity.
Airlines trust in this mature destination and keep increasing their offer. Thus, until next March 30 there will a very attractive offer of direct flights to and from Malaga.
