The Latvian airline airBaltic announces that, starting from October
27, 2024, it will conclude its ACMI-in (Aircraft, Crew, Maintenance, and
Insurance) operations for the upcoming winter season*. The ACMI-in was a
short-term wet-lease solution, introduced to meet the increased demand
during the busy summer months and to address supply chain issues related
to aircraft engine maintenance. This practice involves leasing of
aircraft from other airlines to fulfill airBaltic’s routes when
additional capacity is required.

Passengers can expect a
consistent experience across all flights as airBaltic transitions back
to exclusively operating its own Airbus A220-300 fleet for the winter
season.
Martin Gauss, CEO and President of airBaltic: “Our
adaptability this past summer allowed us to maintain all planned
operations despite external challenges. Our first priority is always to
deliver the best customer experience through focusing solely on our
Airbus A220 300 fleet, while we have sufficient aircraft availability,
and we're committed to expanding and strengthening our fleet to support
the growing demand for air travel from our passengers. I want to thank
our passengers for their patience and understanding, as these temporary
operations were part of our efforts to ensure reliable connectivity.”
Looking
forward, airBaltic will soon welcome its 49th Airbus A220-300 aircraft,
further expanding its fleet. The company’s long-term growth strategy
aims to increase the fleet size to up to 100 aircraft by 2030,
reinforcing its position as a leading carrier in the region.
