As of 2011.06.21. Latvian national airline airBaltic is lowering fares for flexible tickets in Economy class. This makes travel with an Economy Flex ticket more attractive for passengers who value possibilities to change their travel date and time.
As of 2011.06.21., airBaltic’s new Economy Flex fares start from EUR 159 one way. These allow changing the date and time of the trip anytime before departure. The regular Economy class ticket prices start from EUR 19.
Last week, airBaltic also made booking flights easier in all classes by introducing its redesigned website at www.airbaltic.com This new website www.airbaltic.com offers easier selection of the origin and destination airports, and provides a better overview of prices in Business, Economy Flex and Economy class. The departure and return fares are displayed separately. The lowest available prices are marked with green up to 3 days before and after your chosen date, so if you are flexible, you can easily switch to another day with a cheaper flight. The new www.airbaltic.com website also enables a much simpler process to modify the original search – to add passengers, to change the route or travel dates without having to start all over again.
airBaltic serves 80 destinations from its home base at Riga, Latvia. From every one of these, airBaltic offers convenient connections via North Hub Riga to its network spanning Europe, Scandinavia, Russia, CIS and the Middle East.
