The Gift of Presence: Making Mother’s Day Special at the Airport
In the rush of daily life, quality time with our loved ones can easily fall to the bottom of the to-do list. This Mother’s Day, instead of stressing over the perfect gift, consider giving something far more meaningful: your presence. And while it may seem unlikely, the airport might be the place to do just that.
Share a meal, share a moment
Meals are often quick and functional, squeezed between meetings, errands, and deadlines. Why not take the pressure off and turn mealtime into an occasion? Skip the prep and cleanup, and treat Mum to a leisurely bite at the airport’s diverse Food Court. With everything from fresh salads to comforting classics, international delights, sweet treats and warm beverages, there’s something to tempt every taste. Whether you’re indulging in a long-overdue chat over coffee or discovering a new dish together, it’s the experience, not just the food, that truly satisfies.

Take it slow, together
Spending time together doesn’t always need an itinerary. Sometimes, the best moments come from simply being present. Take the opportunity to wander through o
ur diverse shopping outlets, where you can browse new releases at Agenda Bookshop, help Mum pick out something new to brighten up her home at Butlers, upgrade your travel gear at Samsonite or even find something to sparkle in at Hebe. The beauty of retail therapy is that it can quickly turn out to be a low-key but high-quality day out.

Catch your breath and a view
For a moment of calm, head to the Observation Deck, where you can enjoy a quiet moment and just take it all in. With planes gliding across the sky, it’s the perfect place to reminisce about childhood holidays or even daydream about planning your next trip. And with some of Malta’s most traditional skylines in the backdrop, it’s the perfect place to reflect and connect.
Create memories, not just moments
Mother’s Day doesn’t have to be grand gestures or elaborate plans. Sometimes all it takes is choosing to be fully present. At the airport, you’ll find
more than just a place to pass time, you’ll discover a space where meaningful moments can unfold naturally. So go ahead, plan a day t
hat’s all about her, and you, together.
