“Despite the fact that we pay special attention to passenger luggage and in more than 98% of cases it reaches its destination safely and on time, sometimes luggage can be delayed or damaged. In such cases, our customer service provides professional care and takes everything necessary to find and deliver and reimburse passenger expenses, “explains the airBaltic CEO Martins Gauss.

With the new service, passengers can create or manage applications and track their delayed luggage on a self-service website that can be found here.
