“Join Up Baltic” became the first step for Join UP!™ brand into the European market. The moment was full of challenges: the post pandemic period, the change in travelers' habits, but despite the difficult circumstances, we achieved perfect results. We have won the hearts of travelers by offering a wide selection of hotels, great service, and flights with our strategic partner airlines,” says Sabina Saikovskaja, CEO of “Join Up Baltic”. “We don't hide our ambitions to become one of the leaders of the tourism market in the Baltic States, offering the market a modern and high-quality product and opening new travel destinations.”

The tour operator has a main office in Riga and a motivated team of 30 tourism experts. The strategic partner of “Join Up Baltic” is “SkyUp Airlines”. Currently the tour operator is the only one in Baltics which performs its
flights with their own airline. It has 12 Boeing 737 aircraft, and two of its aircraft are already based in Tallinn and Vilnius airports.
