The Latvian airline airBaltic brought the record passenger to Riga airport this year – Ms Airi Noor, an Estonian travelling from Tallinn to Riga. Ms Noor was number 5 390 000th customer serviced at Riga International Airport this year.

The addition of brand new and larger CS300 jets to airBaltic fleet means that the carrier can offer 16% more tickets in 2017, as the number of available seats increases, new routes are launched, additional flights to European airports are introduced, and high-demand cities like Copenhagen get an upgrade from turboprop to jet aircraft. Thus, airBaltic expects to continue increasing its customer numbers over the coming year.

airBaltic serves over 60 destinations from its home base in Riga, Latvia. From every one of these locations, airBaltic offers convenient connections via Riga to its network spanning Europe, Scandinavia, CIS and the Middle East. In addition, airBaltic also offers direct flights from Tallinn and Vilnius.
