From today, the Latvian airline airBaltic will start flights from Riga to two Norwegian cities – Trondheim and Bergen, as well as to a new seasonal destination in Greece – the island of Kos, airBaltic representatives said.
airBaltic operates flights to these cities twice a week. Flights from Riga to Trondheim, Bergen and Kos are operated by Airbus A220-300 aircraft.
This summer, airBaltic is offering direct flights from Riga to more than 70 destinations, including seven destinations in Italy, seven in Greece and six in Spain, as well as several other leisure destinations.
It has already been reported that airBaltic carried a total of 1.34 million passengers last year, which is 73% less than in 2019.
Last year, the airBaltic Group had a turnover of 142.6 million euros, which is 72% less than a year earlier, while the group’s losses increased 29 times and reached 264.6 million euros.
