he Latvian national airline airBaltic continues the beginning of the year strongly, carrying 277 800 passengers in February 2024 – a 19% increase compared to the same period last year. During the winter season, when the demand traditionally declines, consistently stable indicators of transported passengers can still be observed within a single month. In February, airBaltic performed 2 840 flights, marking an 11% increase from the previous year.

This year, our focus is on expanding our fleet and destinations to offer passengers a wide range of travel options, which is attracting significant interest from travelers. With more than 130 routes in operation, we are connecting our home bases to the globe more extensively than ever before.”
In the upcoming summer season, airBaltic plans to add 15 new routes – 7 from Latvia, 3 from Estonia, 4 from Lithuania and 1 from Tampere. Additionally, the airline plans to increase flight frequencies on routes from Riga to Rome, Prague, and more, as well, as from Vilnius to Paris, Munich, Tallinn, and from Palanga to Riga.
