United Airlines, the largest carrier across both the Atlantic and Pacific, started three new direct flights connecting New York with Malaga, Dubai, and Stockholm.
Starting May 31, travelers started to explore Spain’s Mediterranean coast with three flights per week to Malaga located in the autonomous community of Andalusia. Malaga is United’s fifth Spanish destination.
Beyond its 16 sunny beaches, this Andalusian city on the shores of the Mediterranean has a fascinating cultural side. And the birthplace of Pablo Picasso has reinvented itself in recent years, inaugurating museums for all tastes. Here in the city of Picasso, you can visit the excellent Picasso Museum in the center, and the home where he was born.
